The puppies we raise have a life changing impact on the blind and visually impaired that they serve. They provide safety of travel, freedom and independence for their handlers.
We need help covering training and program expenses. Also for flight expenses so we can meet our puppies blind or visually impaired handler when they graduate from the guide school in California or Oregon.
Guide Dogs for the Blind, puppy raising clubs empowers lives by creating exceptional partnerships between people, dogs, and communities.
Our Ft. Worth club prepares puppies, by training them in basic obedience commands and socializing them to everyday situation, so they will be prepared for formal training, where they will assist the blind and visually impaired.
Any donations go to the care and training of our pups. None of our volunteers receive payment for their time.
As part of our ongoing work to empower the lives of people who are blind or visually impaired and foster diversity and inclusion within our own organization, Guide Dogs for the Blind shares accountability for creating a community where everyone can feel included, respected and safe. We stand in solidarity with those working peacefully to eradicate systemic discrimination and brutality.
