Etiquette when meeting someone with a guide dog

Don’t! When a Guide Dog is in harness, it is working. Whether it is walking, sitting or sleeping, it should not be: PATTED FED or DISTRACTED

Dos Please talk to the person, not the Guide Dog. Keeping your pet dogs on lead in the public places also helps Guide Dogs to maintain their concentration.

Ask politely if the owner needs any help. Remember!

I hope….

The End ~ Thank you!
