What breeds make the best guide dogs?
Guiding Eyes for the Blind (GEB) primarily uses the Labrador retriever as the breed of choice for guide dogs because of the Labrador’s intelligence and adaptability. GEB also has a limited program for training German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers as guide dogs. Having the three breeds enables GEB to provide the best possible match for each client. GEB guide dogs are highly respected for their skill and adaptability and are working in urban and rural settings throughout the United States and many other countries.
