Dogs are our good friends. They are cute and smart. Some dogs have a job. Guide dogs（導(dǎo)盲犬） are one of those dogs. They help blind people（盲人）. How can a dog be a guide dog？

狗狗去上學(xué)

Guide dog puppies（幼犬） first live with a family. When they are 1 year old，they go to a guide dog school. They study there for about six to eight months.

The trainers（訓(xùn)練員） take them to different places，such as shops，buses and hospitals. The dogs learn good manners（禮貌）. And they learn to help people stay safe（保持安全）. There are tests（測試）. Some dogs pass（通過） the tests and start to（開始） work. A guide dog works for about eight to ten years.

最適合做導(dǎo)盲犬的狗狗

Not any dog can be a guide dog. They should be smart，gentle（溫和的） and not very curious（好奇的）. And they shouldnt be too small. Small dogs cant protect（保護(hù)） people. Here are the three favorite dogs for the job.

路遇導(dǎo)盲犬“三不要”

A guide dog takes care of its master（主人）. When we meet one，we shouldnt distract（使分心） it.

它們都是好幫手！

Guide dogs are a kind of service dog（服務(wù)犬）. Lets meet two other service dogs. They have different skills（技能）.
