A guide dog essentially has the responsibility
for a human life in it's paws; it's duty is to ensure that it's owner
remain safe and be able to navigate through the world with the smallest
possible amount of complications or danger. The average guide dog will
work about 6-8 years but some work for 10 years or longer.
A blind person directs them to where they want to go and it’s the person’s responsibility to listen for traffic movements and other sounds that might indicate the environment is unsafe. However, guide dogs are trained to ignore commands if they could potentially harm their owner or themselves. This is called “intelligence disobedience.”
