About Suomen Opaskoirakoulu
Suomen Opaskoirakoulu breeds, raises and trains guide dogs. Most puppies are bred by the school, placed with foster families from about seven weeks of age, and then assessed through a preliminary course before handover.
Its customers are visually impaired people who receive a guide dog through a handover course, usually lasting two to four weeks depending on whether the applicant is new to guide dogs. Further training follows about half a year later, and the school monitors each dog's work and health for its working life.
The company was founded in 2007 and is based in Kurkimäki. Its premises are in a rural setting near Helsinki and Kuopio. The school also takes part in international guide dog activities.
Product: Guide dog breeding, puppy foster-family placement, preliminary and handover courses, and follow-up training for visually impaired users.
