介绍： They are loving companions.
And for the blind, these dogs are a lifeline.
Lorri Bernson lost her vision 25 years ago and had her current guide dog named Captain for one year.
"He is so sweet, and so devoted, and so makes me smile.
You know these dogs are they’re not just your eyes.
I mean they become your heart.
They become part of your soul.
They become part of your being,
Because when theyre not with you, you notice the difference."

Many dogs are bred and trained here at Guide Dogs of America outside Los Angeles.
Owners and dogs move in tandem step by step, navigating obstacles, including cars.
If a car gets too close to them, and they have what we call a buffer zone.
Its anywhere from ten feet to two feet being a very tight buffer zone.
But if a car were to come and break that buffer zone, and the dog feels uncomfortable, they’re gonna stop."
The dogs bred at this facility are mostly labrador retrievers, golden retrievers, or a mix.

他们是亲密的伙伴。
对于盲人来说，这些狗是命脉。
洛丽·贝恩松在25年前失去了视力，她现在的导盲犬叫 Captain, 已经工作了一年。
“他是那么可爱，那么忠诚，带给我欢笑。”
你知道这些狗不仅仅是你的眼睛。
我的意思是走进了心灵深处。
它们成为你灵魂的一部分。
它们成为你生命的一部分，
因为当他们不在你身边时，你会注意到不同。”
许多狗是在洛杉矶郊外的美国导盲犬机构繁育和训练的。
主人和狗狗一步一步地一起移动，穿越障碍，包括汽车。
如果一辆车离他们太近，他们就会有所谓的缓冲区。
从10英尺到2英尺是一个很紧的缓冲区。
但是如果一辆车开过来冲过了那个缓冲区，狗感到不舒服，他们就会停下来。”
在这里繁殖的狗大多是拉布拉多寻回犬、金毛寻回犬或混血犬。
