About Become a puppy raiser with Guide Dogs - Information event
Do you live in or around Edinburgh? Guide Dogs Scotland are looking to recruit new volunteer puppy raisers in this area.
At this recruitment/information event, attendees can meet staff, volunteers, a guide dog owner and a puppy, and find out what’s really involved with raising a future life-changing guide dog.
Volunteer puppy raisers provide a puppy with the vital foundation for its future role. You'll be looking after a puppy for 12-16 months and will guide him or her through training, socialisation, the introduction of new environments and experiences whilst providing a loving home.
Lynsey Anderson-Fell, Puppy Development Advisors for Guide Dogs, said: “We’re really looking forward to welcoming new volunteer puppy raisers to our guide dog family.
“This is an opportunity to find out more about what’s involved with raising a guide dog puppy.
“Please come along and meet our fantastic local team of staff and volunteers and guide dog owners to find out first-hand how you can change people’s lives.”
If you plan to attend, please let us know by emailing Lynsey.Anderson-Fell@guidedogs.org.uk or sending a message to Guide Dogs Scotland on Facebook.
Please note: Pet dogs are not permitted at this event.
