  • Latte goes to university

    Shortly after his first birthday, Latte packed his suitcase and said goodbye to his puppy-parents to enter a new phase of his training. Latte then practices with our trainer, Mónika Köbli, to turn a beautiful yellow Labrador into a true guide dog once and become a loyal companion to a visually impaired person. Latte’s paws were a bit difficult to let go of her trainers, as they had loved the adorable little lady for the past year. They said goodbye to Latte: “With tears in our eyes but with limitless pride,

  • Over the past year, several cases have been reported in the press about visually impaired people with a guide dog being prevented from moving freely. In a totally unlawful way. We have just learned about the latest case, so we are turning to the public. In two cases, the companies concerned had to pay fines of hundreds of thousands following the actions of the Consumer Protection and Equal Treatment Authority. The Baráthegyi Guide Dog School conducts awareness-raising activities to reduce the risk of degrading people. More and more people know that guide dogs have the right to go wherever sighted people are. Not just public institutions, but shops and even restaurants, but there is no doubt that we still have a

  • We are extremely proud that today our two couples passed the road safety exam! Kálmán and Kiwi and Piroska and Karma did a great job according to the exam board! Kálmán started the exam. They had to get from the client hostel to the center, this was the route they got. Kálmán was very excited and nervous at first, but of course everything went well. Kiwi showed the pedestrian crossings, performed his job. The tram driver was so nice we weren’t even at the pedestrian crossing, he thought he was waiting for us, so Kálmán didn’t hear the tram inside. As they entered the stop, Kiwi decided to take Kalman to the vehicle, says Emese Királyné Barkóczi, who trained Kiwi. The red-blue exam route was the center-client hostel. They started and bused
