How are guide dogs trained?

First of all, we should train the puppy to complete all the basic skills freely. Training the response to obstacles is actually to make the puppy form a conditioned reflex.

For example, in order to train the guide dog to meet the stairs, the trainer will take the puppy to the stairs and beat the stairs or other things with his hand to stop the puppy and lean against the trainer. This is the way over and over again, let the puppy form a habit, see the stairs stop automatically, and bend over to block the human body until the success rate reaches 99%.

After about 6 to 10 months, you can start pairing with blind cells and training together. Owners should learn how to work with guide dogs, how to command, how to feed and so on. Puppies should know the living environment and working environment of their new owners. If the two sides cooperate tacitly, the guide dog will be taken home by the blind and officially begin to "work on the job". After that, the tutor will conduct long-term follow-up counseling.
