The Beginning

An American woman named Dorothy Eustis had heard about the program and decided it was a very worthwhile endeavor.  Because she owned a company that was training German Shepherds as working dogs, she decided she might try to train guide dogs for the blind.  She did not start this right away, however.  In fact she was still considering the possibilities when she penned a story for The Saturday Evening Post about the potential for guide dogs for the blind.

A Nashville man named Morris Frank had heard the story and decided to write to Ms. Eustis and ask her to train a dog for him.  She did and Mr. Frank became known as the first blind person to use a guide dog.

As part of an arrangement he’d made with Ms. Eustis, Mr. Frank started training guide dogs in the United States.  The foundation that Mr. Frank started was dubbed “The Seeing Eye” and the so-called Seeing Eye dog was effectively born.

Today guide dogs are trained to assist people with many different disabilities.  There are Hearing Ear dogs to assist the deaf and other dogs that assist the physically disabled.  All of the people who have benefited from the use of a guide dog, however, owe their thanks to Mr. Morris Frank of Nashville, Tennessee.
