Guide Dog Team Graduations Melt Hearts at Guide Dogs for the Blind

Guide Dogs for the Blind (GDB) will celebrate its guide dog team graduates every other Saturday with public graduation ceremonies at the organization's campus in San Rafael. These touching public events have brought tears of joy to the eyes of the toughest audience members, as graduating guide dog teams proudly take the stage. Families are welcome at the ceremonies, which honor the independence and companionship that GDB's guide dogs provide for GDB's clients who are blind or visually impaired. The events also allow GDB's clients to meet the puppy raisers who cared for their canine heroes prior to beginning formal training at GDB's campus. Ceremonies also recognize recent graduates of GDB's Orientation and Mobility (O and M) Program, K9 Buddy Program, and Breeder Dog Program.

Kleenex will be provided. Pre-registered bus groups are welcome. Graduation day public tours of the campus are offered on the days of the ceremonies. Visit www.guidedogs.com for more information. Graduation events are also live-streamed at https://www.youtube.com/@gdb_official/streams.
