Graduates Corner – Guide Dog Gazette, Winter 2024

Meet our new graduates!

Although the CNIB Guide Dogs’ official graduation ceremony occurs every spring, guide dogs, buddy dogs, and ambassador dog partnerships complete their formal training and graduate throughout the year. Meet the new partnerships we’re celebrating today!

Guide Dog partnerships:  Laura and her CNIB Guide Dog, Toby. Indoors, Laura kneels on the ground next to Toby, a yellow lab in harness. Laura smiles and has her left arm around Toby. Laura is also wearing a Canadian Blind Hockey sweater.
