What identifies a puppy as a Seeing Eye puppy?
The Seeing Eye provides each puppy with a green bandana that says “Seeing Eye Puppy,” which the dogs are to wear when in public. Please do not go up and pet or call out the name of a dog wearing one of these bandanas, the dogs are being taught to focus on their job when walking. When the puppy becomes a guide dog it is very distracting to the dog and handler to have people just walk up and pet the animal. Instead, speak directly to the handler – we’d be more than happy to talk to you! Raisers also have an identification card for their puppy that should be with the puppy’s handler at all times.
