HMinchin, 11 months ago to random TIL there were guide dogs in medieval Europe! This image from a 13th century French manuscript in the British Library shows a blind man being lead by a dog. Hooray for Dr Krista Milna, who researches this topic and has just been awarded a grant to do more! #GuideDogs #Dogs #Disability #Medieval #History
