Anyone know if Guide Dogs for the blind are also Protection trained?
So I was thinking as I was driving to work today... I saw a blind woman and her German Shepherd guide dog. I wondered in this day in age, it isn't out of the question for some awful person to mug a blind person..... my question is, All the money and training and time that goes into Guide Dogs... Do they get trained in protection/bite work as well?
Just curious... thanks Dog Section.
Guide dogs are NOT trained for protection and bite work.
The point of a Guide Dog is that it is also suppossed to be socialized and tolerant of the general public. What if their blind master needed physical/medical assistance? That would not be good for the dog to bite and attack anyone who is trying to help his master.
Guide dogs are not suppossed to display ANY aggressive behavoirs.
Shepherds are naturally proctive tho.. Im sure if the dog felt his master was in danger, he would protect him/her.. but the dog is not trained to do that.
