More than a million rubles were allocated to guide dogs in Kuzbass.
In the area, guide dogs help ten blind residents: nine Labradors and one German shepherd. People with visual impairments have the right to such an assistant if this is indicated in the individual rehabilitation plan.
The state pays 39,951 rubles a year for the maintenance and veterinary care of the dog. The amount is adjusted every year.
In 2026, the Social Fund first began issuing electronic certificates for food with a face value of 83,900 rubles. They can be used throughout the year.
A resident of Kemerovo, Alena Kuzina, walks about five kilometers with her dog every day - just on the way to work and back.
