An unexpected turn of events was the miracle Louise was waiting for.

Guide Dogs are trained to help their Handler navigate their daily environment and beyond.

Thanks to their unique skills, Guide Dogs can recognise obstacles, cross busy roads, move through large crowds with ease, board public transport, and get their Handler almost anywhere they need or want to go.

Every Guide Dog is carefully selected to match the personality and specific needs of their Handler.

Guide Dogs provide constant support and companionship throughout their partnership, with the average partnership lasting from eight to ten years.

Throughout their partnership, qualified Guide Dog Mobility Instructors provide ongoing training to ensure Handlers and Guide Dogs have the skills and confidence they need for years to come.
