　　Welcome to Guide Dogs Training Centre! First let me tell you something about guide dogs.

In 1918, a doctor and his pet dog walked with a soldier who was blind. The doctor went in the hospital for a short time. When he came out, he saw his pet guide the soldier safely. So he taught a dog to guide a person. Later, a program was started to teach dogs to be guides.

The best dogs for the job are clever and fit. It takes more than two years to train a little dog to be a guide dog. When the dog is 14 months old, it learns many instructions. Then the owner and the dog meet, and they practice for four weeks.
