🐾 Happy International Guide Dog Day! 🐾
Today, we celebrate the extraordinary guide dogs that bring independence and joy to many lives across the globe. 🎉 Guide dogs are more than just pets; they are lifelines to their handlers, providing them with freedom, mobility, and companionship.
What do Guide Dogs Do?
Guide dogs are trained to lead their handlers around obstacles, through crowds, and across busy streets. They help navigate public transport, provide vital confidence, and support to participate in everyday life.
Training and Costs
Training a guide dog is an extensive process that can take up to 2 years and cost over £50,000. This includes their breeding, training, and support throughout the dog's working life.
Why Sponsor a Guide Dog?
Sponsoring a guide dog can make a huge difference. It helps cover the costs of raising and training these incredible animals, ensuring that they can continue to support those in need.
