This discussion will focus on the journey that Fidelco oversees from pup to Guie Dog Partner. We will discuss how Fidelco pioneered "In-Community Placement" to ensure the clients and guide dogs can function well in the community, at work, and at home.

Our talk will also talk about how infrastructure could be improved for better and safer access, as well as issues for these dogs in navigating transportation networks.
