What to expect when you’re expecting a guide dog.
There’s just so much involved in preparing, training, and matching with a guide dog that words can’t quite capture, so we’ve created an entire series of videos that show the experience from the day you set foot on campus to the day you head home with your new best friend. Check out the links below for a comprehensive video look at what it’s like to become a member of the Southeastern Guide Dogs family.
