Blind Tibetan opens horizon to wide world of opportunities
Dachung Wochen's many talents and passion stretch far beyond any disability
By Palden Nyima and Daqiong in Lhasa
When Dachung Wochen, a 35-year-old blind Tibetan, walks in the bustling streets of Lhasa, capital of the Xizang autonomous region, with his guide dog Fuju, people are amazed by their tacit cooperation.
Fuju helps his master navigate every obstacle on the road. After spending only a year with him, he understands most of his commands in Tibetan.
Dachung Wochen's journey with the four-year-old canine began in April 2024. After 28 days of professional training at the China Guide Dog Training Center in Dalian, Liaoning province, Dachung, as he is called by friends and family, took Fuju to Xizang by air and rail.
