Albert Heath lives in Okatie, South Carolina, about 10 miles west of Hilton Head. He reports that he and his Seeing Eye dog, Filbert, are safe and sound in the wake of Hurricane Ian.

"Ian visited but he didn't stay for very long. I've had thunderstorms worse than that one," Albert said.

The hurricane didn't bother Filbert, Albert reported. "Filbert didn't even get out of bed. Thunder booms and he doesn't even raise his head."

Speaking of booms, Albert is a U.S. Army veteran who served in an Artillery unit. "It wasn't too bad," he said. "I got to ride around on a tank."

The photo shows Albert, wearing a U.S. Army Veteran baseball cap, with his arm around Filbert, a black Labrador retriever in harness.

Albert first came to The Seeing Eye in 2013 to be matched with a black Labrador retriever named Bishop, who is now retired and living with Albert as a pet dog.

"Filbert and Bishop get along great. They love to play with each other," Albert said. "I think Bishop gets a little jealous sometimes that he's not guiding anymore. When I put Filbert in the harness, sometimes Bishop tries to wiggle in between us thinking he's going too."

Today is a very special day for two reasons. First, it's International Guide Dog Day! But just as important, today is when our new class of students meet their Seeing Eye dogs! We call it “Dog day Wednesday” - and all dogs get a bath before they are given to their new partners. This cute golden retriever is all ready for his big day!

PD is a blonde Golden retriever sitting facing the camera. He is in the tub room of the kennel. He has just finished getting his bath and is wrapped up like a burrito in a towel. All you see is the top of his head, eyes and snout and one paw sticking out of the bottom of the towel and his tail out the back He is very relaxed and seems to enjoy it.
