Top 5 Seeing Eye Animals
Awwwwww, look at the puppy! --->
In the UK we call these animals 'Blind' animals, like 'Blind Dog', as it's essentially a blind person's dog. It in no way implies that the animal in question is blind. However in the US they felt the need to clarify this, for political correctness or whatever, or maybe there are so many dumb American's they figured it really was a blind animal. Anyway, they renamed them to be 'Seeing Eye' animals. Now I can understand 'Eye Dog' or whatever but this obviously caused a bit too much confusion as well.
"WHAT?!? It's an EYE! But it's a DOG?!? That's just SICK!!"
Once again I don't see how calling it a 'Seeing Eye' animal makes it better, it just implies that the huge grotesque Eye Dog can see you as well! Here's my Top 5 'Seeing Eye' animals:
1. Seeing Eye Dog
2. Seeing Eye Horse
3. Seeing Eye Pig
4. Seeing Eye Cat
5. All Seeing Eye Dog
Thinking about it I suspect that 'Guide' animals would be better all round to avoid confusion.
