The dog is commanded by the handler to move forward when the handler has determined that it is safe to do so. The handler does this by listening to the traffic flow patterns, which is taught in the Orientation and Mobility training that the handler received before being accepted by the Guide provider for Guide training. Contrary to popular belief, the dog does not "know" or "learn" the positions of the different colored lights to determine when to go. It is entirely up to the handler to command when to move.
Dogs aren't actually color blind, and they don't tend to go color blind. This is a common misconception. Dogs don't see the same range of colors that humans do, but they do see color.
Guide dogs are trained to automatically stop at all intersections, regardless of traffic lights. It is then up to the human handler to listen for the sounds of traffic to determine which direction it is going and when it is safe to cross.

∙ 6y agoGuide dogs are trained to asses the situation, and only go forward if it is safe to cross. Their human partner learns to trust that their dog knows best.
Guide dogs are taught "Intelligent Disobedience". If they are told to cross a street but can see that it is not safe, they will not lead their handler forward.
