Guide Dogs of the Desert provides custom trained guide dogs for the blind, and for those with special needs, for safe mobility, companionship, and independence.
Guide Dogs of the Desert was founded over 40 years ago on the premise that every legally blind person should have the opportunity to have a guide dog, including those with multiple disabilities, balance issues, prothesis, some deafness and PTSD. Because of this commitment to our special clients, our class sizes are small and focus on the individual needs of our clients.
Many of our clients are those that have progressive diseases, such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, cataracts, glaucoma, and then there are those that have lost their sight at birth or through a life altering accident.
We do all of this at NO COST to the clients we serve.
