Ready for Recall!

Central Bark: A Guide Dogs for the Blind Podcast

About
What makes a guide dog puppy ready for formal training? In this episode, we sit down with Guide Dog Mobility Instructor Claire Lozito to break down the connection between the skills and behaviors that guide dog puppy raising volunteers instill in our puppies in training and the skills needed for formal guide dog training. We explore how early foundational behaviors directly shape a dog's ability to learn the skills of advanced guide work and partner with their handlers safely and effectively.
