Guide Dog Centres

Hi All

I have been looking on the net at the Guide Dogs website and would love to be involved, either puppy walking or boarding, or something!

Are any of you invloved with the Guide Dog association? My Mum saw an advert for volunteers in our local shop and has rung them, although the number was a UK one - were in the Isle of Man.

Just wanted to know if anyone had any info on the association/how to get involved in our area. Also, anyone who has helped to look after or train a guide dog.

Many Thanks

Re: Guide Dog Centres

we had guide dogs in training at our college and i often walked them but werent allowed to do much else with them.

i applyed for a training possition but didnt get it because i lived in wrong area, cant be much more help then that im affraid, did think of being a puppy walker but id be too upset giving them up and you have to follow all their rules so can be a big life change.

Re: Guide Dog Centres

sounds like a hard organisation to get into!

i do agree, it would be sad when you take the puppy back....be a worthwhile time though!
