Visual Companion Dogs for Children

 

Visual Companion dogs are the anchor for blind and visually impaired children. They provide stability, security and important mobility cues for their young friends. In addition, they are a huge asset to a child socially, bringing curious children into contact with the vision-impaired child and opening up dialogs.

 

Most importantly, the Visual Companion Dogs are the child’s best friend and confidence builder. A child feels an increased sense of security when walking alongside their furry friend and gains confidence in their exploration and mobility while allowing for an increased sense of independence.
