The Seeing Eye charges the same fee it has charged since it first opened: $150 for the first dog and $50 for each subsequent dog. Though the agency has sufficient funding to place the dogs at no charge, they believe that charging a nominal fee gives their clients dignity.

Consider that the cost of upkeep of a dog over the course of the life of the dog exceeds $8,000. The $150 fee covers transportation and housing during the month long training period with the dog at the Seeing Eye, as well as the dog's harness. If a person cannot afford this nominal fee, which is less than most shelters charge for adoptions, how will they be able to care for the dog once they have him? Some other programs do provide their guides at no charge.
