Career Changed Dogs
These are dogs that have not successfully passed either their training with the puppy raiser or their formal training in guidework at the GDB campus. Common reasons for a dog to be career changed include medical (conditions such as skin allergies or chronic ear infections) and behavioral (such as inability to stay focused on guidework or excessive ground sniffing). Many of the career changed dogs are successful in other types of service work. GDB has partnered with the San Francisco SPCA Hearing Dog Program and the California Highway Patrol. Many GDB career changed dogs have successfully graduated as a dog for a person with a hearing impairment or as a narcotic or bomb detection dog with the CHP. Those career changed dogs who have not graduated as another type of service dog become loving pets adopted out to the general public. Many of them become pet therapy dogs. We are extremely proud of all of our dogs and their chosen careers.
