Support and Assistance Dog Breeds

There’s always a first time for everything, Getting Dog Breeds is not exceptional. The question in today’s Dog Breeds - reiVRE Hot Pulse is – "What is Dog AID?"Dog AID does not actually supply dogs. What Dog AID does do is to help people train their own dog to be generally obedience trained as good pets and to help around the house.rip

Information on support and assistance dogs for people with disabilities including people who are blind or visually impaired

There are several organisations that provide support or assistance dogs for disabled people. Some dogs are trained specifically to help with certain tasks.

Dogs for blind or visually impaired people

The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association provides training and support at virtually no cost, for people with serious sight loss who would like to have a guide dog.

To become a guide dog owner, you must be 16 or over, have a significant visual loss - which may be combined with other disabilities - and be fit enough to use and care for the dog.

Dogs for deaf or hearing impaired people

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is a registered charity that trains dogs to alert deaf people to sounds they cannot hear such as alarm clocks, babies crying, smoke alarms and many others.

You can find out more and apply for a hearing dog by telephone or textphone or by visiting their website.

Telephone: 01844 348 100 (voice and minicom)

Other assistance dogs

Some charities train dogs to assist and support disabled owners with a particular disability. Disability assistance dogs can be trained to do many things including fetching items, operating control buttons and switching lights on and off.

Dogs can also be trained in other ways, for example, to alert owners of an imminent epileptic seizure.
