Assistance Dogs International (ADI) and the International Guide Dog Federation (IGDF) have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation which will see them collaborate to improve the lives of people with disabilities including visual impairment. Between them, IGDF and ADI represent more than 250 assistance and guide dog programs with more than 36,000 active teams in more than 40 countries.
With Spring and more people out and about you may also notice more service dogs and guide dogs in training out and about.
Sabine Laubental has always been a dog lover, and as her vision started to deteriorate, the idea came naturally to apply for a dog with the Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind.
Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind marked its 37th anniversary last month, an organization that has successfully created and supported over 900 guide dogs teams over the years.
Most dog owners are responsible pet owners who love their dog like part of the family.
Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind is fortunate to be one of the partner charities for the Bingoland Gaming Centre (formerly Bingoland South).
