THE SEEING EYE ANNUAL REPORT 2019 03 LETTER FROM THE OFFICERS OF THE SEEING EYE
Dear Friends:
One of the most colorful achievements of 2019 was the addition to our Washington Valley campus of a mural, telling the story of Seeing Eye dogs… from puppies to partners!
The mural covers the walls, and even the doors, of the visitor’s entrance to the Main House, which houses our student dormitory and dining hall, as well as administrative offices. Each year, more than 2,000 people use this entrance to learn about our mission and to meet our amazing dogs. In addition, The Seeing Eye is a polling place for area residents, and they too use this entrance. It’s a wonderful way to tell our story to our many visitors.
The mural was designed by artist Caren Frost Olmsted with the help of Seeing Eye archivist R. Bruce Johnson, and then painted by staff, trustees, volunteers, and graduates, as well as students from a local middle school. Each portion of the section was marked off with tape, so people who are blind could also participate in painting by feeling the outlines of each image. We also created a video, so those who can’t see the mural – or can’t make it to campus – can still experience it.
More about the mural and the video can be found at www.SeeingEye.org/mural.
A highlight of the mural is an image of a young graduate kneeling to hug her yellow Labrador/golden retriever cross. It really captures the bond between graduate and dog. Thanks to your generous support, we created more than 250 new teams in 2019, and every one of them is a unique partnership. Our graduates leave here not only with enhanced confidence and independence, but a lovable companion. “My dog has given me so much,” one graduate recently said, “and all he asks in return is a belly rub.”
Thank you for making it possible!

Charlie MacDonald and Tula Charlie MacDonald of Halifax, Nova Scotia, returned to The Seeing Eye in January 2019 to be matched with his fifth Seeing Eye dog, a black Labrador/golden cross named Tula.
“Tula is an excellent worker,” said Charlie, a retired civil engineer and the former executive director of the Nova Scotia Disabled Persons Commission. “She loves to work – she’s very focused and eager to please. She learns a routine once and is fine after that.”
Charlie said he goes to the gym every morning, usually out of the house by 6:30 a.m., and she sits quietly while he does spin class or swimming. “I take her harness off and she loves to get a pat from the lifeguards as she patiently waits for me to finish my swim or workout,” he said.
“She is a very loving dog and I am very pleased with her work.”

“Champ has become a completely life-altering force, both physically and emotionally,” said Marlin Nagtegaal. Marlin and Champ, a German shepherd, graduated from The Seeing Eye in May 2019.
Marlin is the director of the Beckett School at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario, and also teaches at the school. “On top of that, I am director of music at a downtown Episcopal church,” Marlin said. “No time to get bored!”
Champ is Marlin’s first Seeing EyeMarlin Nagtegaal dog. “I had no idea what to expect,” he said. “Having only become blind in the last five years, I have had a major and Champ lifestyle change, and Champ has made that transition so much easier. My work entails much traveling and Champ has made that so much easier for me. Not a day goes by without Champ getting complimented from people as we stand waiting for trains, stop lights, or line ups. I can’t thank you enough for what you have done for me and my family!”

Chris said he and Carter go for long walks every day. “His favorite thing to do is to play fetch in my yard, and to play with my brother’s Shiba Inu, Daisy. They love running around together at my parent’s house.” He also loves going in the water, whether it’s dipping his feet in Chris’s parents’ pool or on the beach in Oahu, Hawaii, where they vacationed last summer.

Stacy, who calls herself “a proud Seeing Eye graduate,” says Onida is all business when she’s in harness but when she gets home, she loves to play with a squeaky ball or while chewing a bone. “She enjoys giving her front paws to me, and will even try to be a lap dog,” Stacy said.

Claudia Del Real and Jackson Claudia Del Real and Jackson, a golden retriever, graduated in January 2019. Claudia, who lives in Whiting, Indiana, is a vocational rehabilitation counselor for the state of Indiana.
“Jackson goes to work with me, we go to stores together, we run errands, such as doctor’s appointments or going to the bank, and social events, including indoor and outdoor concerts,” she said. “We love going for long walks, usually three to five times a week. Whenever we go by a local business we frequent, I can feel Jackson turning his head, as if he’s asking me, ‘Are we stopping here today?’ He is an amazing guide and has been life-altering for me. I feel so much more independent because of him!”

Each year, The Seeing Eye receives nominations from our graduates and puppy raisers for our Veterinary Recognition
Awards. These veterinarians, and many others who remain unnamed, have gone “above and beyond” as they provided extraordinary service and care to Seeing Eye dogs in all stages of their lives. Our puppies, our dogs-in-training, and the Seeing
Eye dogs working with their owners all benefit greatly from the generosity of these veterinarians and their staffs.
