Meet Our Graduates

Cynthia & Summer

"Before I came to The Seeing Eye, I was afraid of dogs. Now I can't imagine my life without one."

Marlin & Champ

"It was like love at first sight. Champ ran up and licked my hand non-stop. He's an unbelievable dog. He's changed my life completely."

Jeff & Bodine

"I was very tentative about going out alone. My wife, Marilyn, had to be my ‘Seeing Eye wife’. Bodine changed my life, and it changed my wife’s life, too. Now I have the independence I wanted thanks to Bodine.”

Maureen & Richard

“I am so thrilled that I came to The Seeing Eye and met Richard. It was the right decision for both of us. He’s just phenomenal – he’s such a great dog.”

Robert & Ralph

“When I first went to The Seeing Eye, I didn’t know one end of a dog from the other. They gave me a male golden retriever and I just fell in love with him. He is a big help in everything I do."

Aman & Robin

"I can't imagine life without her. Nothing seems to phase her. From busy streets to being on stage among musicians, she takes it all in stride."
