Tracking guide dog training at the San Diego International Airport

SAN DIEGO, CA – Guide dogs must undergo rigorous training to learn to stay on task, and the airport, which is full of distractions, is a great place to teach a pup how to focus.

The airport can be chaotic; smells and crowds overwhelm a dog and its partner.

This training is critical for guide dogs early on so when they graduate, they can focus on specific cues to become trusted companions that increase their partner’s confidence, mobility, and independence.
