Guide Dogs for the Blind to host graduation ceremony at California campus

Every other Saturday, Guide Dogs for the Blind hosts a graduation ceremony to appreciate its guide dog team. These public ceremonies are held at the California campus and are free for people of all ages. The celebrations are especially great for dog lovers, but people looking for family outing ideas over the weekend are also welcome.

A heartwarming celebration loved by all, the graduation ceremony honors the companionship the guide dogs provide for their humans. They also bring a new sense of independence, as the canines allow people who are blind to be out and about without help from others. All they need is their furry friend’s company, and they can confidently and safely explore the world.

The graduation ceremony is an excellent opportunity for potential clients to meet those who helped raise the puppies. It will also celebrate canines graduating from the K9 Buddy Program, Orientation and Mobility (O&M) Program, and Breeder Dog Program. It should be noted that larger bus groups must pre-register to attend the ceremony.

Guide Dogs for the Blind also offers pre-graduation tours of the campus. These facility tours end as the ceremony begins, which is held at 1:30 p.m. every other Saturday. Moreover, Guide Dogs for the Blind live streams its graduation ceremony on YouTube for anyone who wants to enjoy the celebration from the comfort of their home.
