Has anyone ever trained a dog to be a guide dog for another dog?
We have a deaf blind puppy and we are looking at getting him another dog to act like a guide dog for him has anyone done this? if so how did you go about the training?
yes, there have been many people with dogs who learn to guide another dog with a disability. i have not personally done this, but i know it can be done. you might want to get a second dog and train him the way a seeing eye dog for a person is trained (see below) and work from there. maybe if your puppy bonded with a new dog, it would take it’s course all by itself. (i know this sounds like “wait and see” advice but there aren’t websites dedicated to this problem sadly)
