Why Fidelco
"My Fidelco guide dog gave me freedom and
independence that I thought would never be possible.”
This is what we hear from our clients time and again
and this desire to live life to the fullest is an important
part of our admissions criteria.
The Fidelco difference also includes our wonderful
German shepherd guide dogs. Our dogs are a truly
a breed within a breed and people with visual
disabilities know that they can trust their safety to
a Fidelco guide dog.
In-community placement is an important reason for
choosing Fidelco. Simply put; why would you want
to leave your home, family, friends and job when
you can train in your home community with a
Fidelco trainer by your side?
It is our sincere hope that as you review the
admissions criteria that, ultimately, your choice
will be Fidelco. Thank you for your consideration.
