German Shepards because they are loyal and not disobedient.
The best type of guide dog would have to be either a German Shepard, or the very reliable black lab.
Typical guide dogs are Labrador retrievers of German Shepard's. Both breeds train easily.
The Seeing Eye has been training dogs, at no charge since 1942.
golden retriever's, they are very nice and not violent many people have them
Used to be German sheperds, but Labs are used more now.
One size doesn't fit all. Depends on the dog's temperament, disposition, ability, and fit with the owner: Generally, you'll find German Shepherds, Belgium Malinois (close cousin), and Labs most suitable. Labs are often more mellow and less intimidating, Shepherds have the advantage of being better protection dogs.
