盲導犬 (guide dogs) are specially trained dogs that assist individuals who are visually impaired or blind. These dogs help their handlers navigate obstacles, cross streets safely, and maintain independence in their daily lives. They are trained to respond to commands and signals, ensuring the safety and mobility of their owners. The training process for 盲導犬 typically begins when the dog is a puppy and lasts for several months. Trainers teach the dogs to recognize various commands and to be attentive to their handler's needs. Once trained, these dogs become invaluable companions, providing both practical assistance and emotional support.
