Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation

Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation We partner people who are blind with expertly trained German Shepherd Guide Dogs. Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation, Inc.

is an internationally accredited nonprofit with locations in Bloomfield and Wilton, CT. Fidelco has placed more than 1,450 guide dogs throughout North America. Each guide dog takes two years, 15,000 hours, and $65,000 to produce – yet all services are provided to clients at no cost. Fidelco relies solely on the generosity and financial support of individuals, foundations, corporations, and civic o

rganizations. Fidelco pioneered In-Community Placement in the United States, a process that allows guide dog users to be trained by professional instructors in the communities where they live and work. Fidelco clients receive 24/7 support for the entire working life of their guide dogs –typically 10 years. In addition, hundreds of German Shepherd Dogs are provided to law enforcement agencies, first responders, and search-and-rescue organizations to help protect our fellow citizens and keep our communities safe.

Has a special pet or person touched your life? You can honor or remember them with a beautiful garden stone.

The stones are engraved approximately one quarter inch deep using a sand carving process and then your personal message is painted in black with 30-year stone paint. Stones can be placed in Fidelco’s garden or shipped to you.

🐾 Happy National Dog Day! 🐾

Today, we’re celebrating the dogs who fill our lives with joy, loyalty, and unconditional love. 💙

At Fidelco, our dogs are so much more than adorable faces (although they are very good at that). From playful puppies to highly trained guide dogs, each one has the potential to make a life-changing difference.

Today, give your dog an extra treat and an extra belly rub for us!

Sorry, I cannot hear you… I’m kinda busy! 🐕‍🦺💼💙

Our guide dogs are focused on an important job, so when you see a working dog, the best way to help is to simply ignore them and let them focus! No petting, calling, or distracting — they’ll appreciate it! 🐾
