Show Notes
University of Maryland students, through their Terps Raising Pups club, are training Labrador retriever puppies to become guide dogs for the blind. The program involves students taking the puppies to campus, teaching them essential skills, and providing them with a fun companion during their studies. Once the dogs reach maturity, they undergo advanced training at the Guide Dog Foundations headquarters before being paired with a handler. Similar programs exist at other universities, contributing to the foundations mission.
