guide dog

This emoji represents a guide dog, specially trained to assist people with visual impairments. Guide dogs help visually impaired individuals navigate safely.

Guide dogs are very intelligent and responsible animals. They identify traffic signals, stairs, obstacles, and other hazards to guide visually impaired people safely.

Guide dogs are often breeds like Labrador Retrievers or Golden Retrievers, and undergo 1-2 years of specialized training. They are not merely pets, but important assistive devices with legal status.

The guide dog system originated in the United States in 1929 and has spread worldwide. In modern society, with increasing awareness of disability rights and accessibility, the right of guide dogs to enter public places is also gradually being guaranteed. In particular, a culture that supports guide dogs is becoming an important indicator of a society's maturity.
