A dog gazing to the left while wearing a harness with a metal handle. This image is commonly used to indicate that a person needs a guide dog or has an impairment that requires one.
2
This is a version of the dog emoji showing a trained, four-legged helper. These dogs often serve as companions for people with physical disabilities—most commonly blind people—and retrievers are frequently chosen for the role. You can see a special harness with a handle on the dog's body; that's what a blind person holds onto. It's essentially a leash or guide handle.
Use this emoji literally when referring to a guide dog. Figuratively, it can stand for the need for direction or support.
