WHY DOES A DOG GUIDE HAVE TO WEAR A SPECIAL HARNESS?
The harness is an important means of communication between the dog and its partner. It allows the person to feel the movement of the dog and in many aspects becomes an extension of the person’s arm. The harness allows the person to feel if the dog is going up or down, forwards or sideways. The person has been trained to follow his or her dog and trust it to do its job.
