Research
Important studies on the behavior and training methods of guide dogs were done in the 1920s and 1930s by Jakob von Uexküll and Emanuel Georg Sarris. They studied the richness of guide dogs and introduced advanced methods of dog training. John Sinykin predated Morris. He was training seeing eye dogs in Minnesota in the early 1920s, ultimately founding Master-Eye kennels and is long credited with being the first in the USA to train dogs for the blind.
