CNIB’s brand ambassador, Ben Mulroney, talks about the importance of International Guide Dog Day with Diane Bergeron, President CNIB Guide Dogs.
International Guide Dog Day takes place this year on Wednesday, April 29, 2020. It is a day to honour guide dogs around the world and the work they do to help those who are blind or partially sighted, as well as the dedicated individuals who raise, train and match guide dogs to their partners.
Yesterday, 35 new partnerships, including 22 guide dogs, seven buddy dogs, two ambassador dogs, and four brood dogs, formally graduated as part of the CNIB Guide Dogs Class of 2025.
Local celebrations were held in communities throughout Canada. For many graduates, the events marked the end of months of anticipation and training and the beginning of a new life-changing journey with their guide dog.
