Item Description
Each dog is assigned to a Seeing Eye instructor with whom they will train for 4 months. Basic training takes place on The Seeing Eye campus before moving to the streets of Morristown. They are regularly trained in a variety of rural, suburban and urban environments.
The dogs are taught to guide with a combination of clicker training, repetition and praise. Half-way through the training period, instructors take a blindfolded walk with each of their charges to test their dogs’ abilities. At the end of the training cycle, the blindfold test is repeated on a more complicated route to ensure the dogs are ready to begin work as Seeing Eye dogs for their new owners.
Your donation represents one day of this process of Seeing Eye dog training.
