Helping dogs

Discover how helping dogs are trained to aid their handlers in leading independent, happy lives. Real-life stories explain how a guide dog can lead a blind person safely across a car-filled street, a hearing dog alerts his deaf handler to her crying baby, and a service dog helps a person in a wheelchair prepare for bedtime.
