This week, Pilot and leaders from Guiding Paws along with other Seeing Eye puppy raisers made a trip to Washington DC. They attended an informational meet-and-greet hosted by National Service Animals Monument Corporation. The proposed monument is intended to honor service animals and their handlers. The monument has received Congressional approval and is currently in the site selection phase of implementation.

“From working dogs and assistance animals to war horses, dolphins, and other service animals, the monument will honor their contributions while placing them within the broader narrative of American service and sacrifice.“

Guiding Paws was honored to be included as representatives of The Seeing Eye and guide animals in our country. We look forward to visiting with our group when the project reaches fruition.
