早在十九世纪初,德国人就已证实:狗具有引导盲人行路的特殊本领。1939年,为了帮助伤残军人生活,日本从德国进口了四条导盲犬。现在,在日本各地已有四百多条导盲犬充当着盲人的“第二眼睛”。这些狗全都经过严格的正规训练和考试,并获得了国家有关法律的正式承认。然而,遗憾的是,有些人对这一事物还远不理解,例如,至今还有一部分旅馆和会厅禁止导盲犬入内。这种做法很可能挫伤盲人要求参加社会生活的积极性。为了进一步帮助人们了解导盲犬的机敏性和它们的重要作用,笔者特地访问了东京导盲犬协会,并亲身参加了训练导盲犬的试验。
As early as the early nineteenth century, Germans have confirmed that dogs have the special ability to guide the blind. In 1939, Japan imported four guide dogs from Germany to help disabled soldiers live. More than 400 guide dogs now serve as the “second eye” of the blind people across Japan. All of these dogs undergo rigorous formal training and examinations and receive official recognition of relevant national laws. However, it is regrettable that some people are far from understanding this matter. For example, some guideposts have been banned in some hotels and halls so far. This approach is likely to dampen the enthusiasm of blind people to participate in social life. In order to further help people understand the alertness of dogs and their important role, I specifically visited the Tokyo Guide Dog Association, and personally participated in the training guide dog trials.
