Since The Seeing Eye was the first guide dog school in North America, the term Seeing Eye dog is the one used by most of the North American public for guide dogs for the blind in general. In the strict sense the term means a dog that graduates from The Seeing Eye in Morristown, New Jersey. Dogs and blind or sight impared owners go through intensive training to get all of the commands and motions correct.
