List of guide dog schools
A list of notable guide dog schools worldwide.
Guide dogs (also called seeing-eye dogs) are assistance dogs trained to lead blind and visually impaired people around obstacles. In the United States, the name "seeing eye dog" should only be used when referring to a guide dog from The Seeing Eye in Morristown, New Jersey, which has trademarked the term.[1]
