SEOUL, Sept. 21 (Korea Bizwire)Samsung Guide Dog School on Tuesday held a rehoming ceremony for eight guide dogs that were delivered to their visually-handicapped partners after completing training at a facility in Yongin, about 50 kilometers south of Seoul.

They will begin a career in earnest as guide dogs after being delivered to eight visually-impaired partners.

The guide dogs passed strict tests after going through a variety of training for two years, and will act as a virtual family, partner and set of eyes for their visually-impaired partners for about seven years.

The rehoming ceremony was held concurrently with the retirement ceremony for six guide dogs that completed between six and eight years of service. The retired guide dogs will open a new chapter in their lives as pets.

The school, founded by Samsung Group, is the nation’s only guide dog training institution certified by the Britain-based International Guide Dog Federation and will celebrate its 30th anniversary next year.
