    I mean, sure? But the organization named themselves after what they planned on doing, which was training seeing eye dogs.

    So a less interesting way of saying it is that they’re the first organization that wanted to train seeing eye dogs, and they named themselves after what they planned on doing.

      Who the hell would’ve said “seeing eye” to describe normal dogs that have been trained to guide the blind? Now let me go back to petting my breathing lung cat.

        I’m just saying. They made the name because that’s what they were calling the trained dogs. It’s not like they were already an organization that then started to train dogs.
