There is no central registry, so any number will be an educated guess.
Working for a local service dog school, these are the numbers we estimate, as of the end of 2009.
It is estimated that there were 1,500-2,000 service dogs (Guide, Hearing, Medical, etc.) that graduated from ADI approved schools. 60 Dogs from the Seeing Eye School and an another 150 from other guide dog schools. The rest account for the other types of service dogs.
There has been a total of 15,000 guides trained from the Seeing Eye, and another 30,000 from other school for all other service dogs since the 1920's.
To put that in perspective, you have a better change at winning the lotto then getting a guide dog. To date only 20,000 service dog teams are in daily use.
