Canadian Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind (CGDB) is a national, non-profit, charitable organization founded in 1984 to provide Canadians with greater mobility and independence through the use of professionally trained guide dogs (Nationally) and mobility assisstance dogs (Ottawa area).
People are more willing to go places and feel a sense of independence. Meeting people and socializing is easier, and people are more likely to offer a blind person help when there is a guide dog. The dogs lead to increased interaction with other people.Dogs are seen as âice breakersâ to a conversation and something to talk about.lthough the dogs can be trained to navigate various obstacles, they are partially (redâgreen) color blind and are not capable of interpreting street signs. The human half of the guide dog team does the directing, based upon skills acquired through previous mobility training.
