My first dog was from the Specialized training program at Guiding Eyes for the Blind. And my current dog is from The Seeing Eye. Both schools have been very accommodating. And both my dogs have been very good guides. Research each program and talk to admissions about your specific needs. They will tell you if they can work with you or not. No school is better than the other. It's more about finding which school will meet your needs best. Good luck in your journey in finding a guide dog program. </div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Aug 31, 2022, at 7:16 PM, hether albright via NFB-DB <nfb-db@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><style>@font-face { font-family: "Cambria Math"; }
