Seeing- eye dogs help blind people. They help blind people to live their daily lives. They guide people. A seeing-eye dog acts like a person’s eyes. trained: taught blind: not able to see puppies Training a seeing-eye dog takes time. The first step is for the puppy to live with a family. Families that train seeing-eye dogs are called “puppy raisers.” They will raise the puppy and give him a loving home. As the puppy grows, he will learn what it is like to be part of a family. He will learn what it is like to live in the world around him. 3 4 Raising a seeing-eye dog is a family project. Everyone in the family must care for and work with the puppy. They want him to grow to be a healthy, friendly seeing-eye dog. Puppies can be shy in their new homes. A boy may want to make friends with the puppy. The boy is gentle with the puppy. He talks to him quietly. The boy takes time showing the puppy what he wants the dog to do. When the puppy obeys, it is helpful to praise him. Taking care of a puppy is hard work. The puppy must be brushed each day. He must be fed three times a day. He must have fresh water. The family can take the puppy on long walks in the neighborhood. He is trained to obey simple commands. He learns to sit, to stop, and to come. It is important for the puppy to obey the commands if he is to become a good seeing-eye dog. 5 After the puppy has learned simple commands, he can go everywhere with the family. He wears a harness. The harness will help to guide a blind person better. The puppy wears a jacket. The jacket says that he is training to be a seeing-eye dog. It tells people that he is not a pet. He is a working dog. With the jacket, the puppy can go places that other dogs cannot go. He can go into restaurants, supermarkets, and shopping centers. He can travel on buses and trains. It is important for the puppy to get to know these places. jacket harness 6 Puppies spend one year with the puppy raisers. Then they are ready to finish their training. The family brings the dog to a special school. It is a proud day for the family. They know the dog will soon be helping a blind person. At the school, the dog will learn more commands such as “find the table” or “go to the elevator.” He also will learn to tell when there is danger. He will help the blind person avoid the danger. The dog will learn to tell if a doorway is too narrow to pass through. He will learn to tell when it is safe to cross a street. seeing-eye dog trainer 7 After four months at the school, the dog is ready to meet his new owner. This dog’s new owner is a blind woman.
