On Friday we celebrated Animal Appreciation Day at the City Park in Miskolc. Many enthusiastic animal lovers joined us and wanted to see our guide dogs. Adults and children alike took turns and put on an eye-pad to experience what it is like to walk with the help of a guide dog.

We could start this week with another successful traffic safety exam, which was a great pleasure for all of us. József Magyar and his guide dog Kenobi demonstrated their skills to a three-member examining board. The first part of the exam was the performance of obedience tasks,

There was a fantastic atmosphere on this year’s third outing on Hajógyári Island, which was organized by our guide dog owner friends this time.

Dóra Pozsgay, one of the organizers talks about the trip:

“May 10, 2015 was again a day when we went on a trip with our guide dog owner friends.

We participated in an organized Family Day on Sunday on the occasion of the Day of the city of Miskolc with workers of the North Hungarian Rehabilitation Center for Visually Impaired People. Interested visitors could try out with demonstrator guide dogs Dió, Delta and Diamond what it is like to walk blindfolded with a guide dog.
