GUIDE DOG USERS OF FLORIDA
Guide Dog Users of Florida (GDUF) is a Florida affiliate of Guide Dog Users, Inc., the largest guide
dog related organization in the United States. We offer peer support and advocacy for the blind community and continuing education for
everyone. Our sensitivity and awareness training team reaches out to all communities to teach people about the special needs of people
who are blind and visually impaired, who choose to use a guide dog as well as our civil rights as protected under the Americans With
Disabilities Act. While we prefer pro-active training, we are often called to provide assistance after a complaint has been filed.
Our monthly meeting takes place via teleconference on the first Saturday of each month from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM. To attend a meeting of
Guide Dog Users of Florida, call (218) 936-1200. The conference code to enter is 72974383.
GDUF is proud to be one of the host organizations for the 4th Annual Southeastern Top Dog Workshop. Top Dog is for guide dog users,
trainers, puppy raisers, family & friends of guide dog users, and dog lovers everywhere! All are welcome! Come enjoy the fun, festivities,
fellowship, and great food!
