Puppy Sponsorship
You can become an integral part of helping our pups become a highly skilled Guide Dog or Autism Assistance Dog
Sponsorship is the gift of independence
By making a regular gift to Guide Dogs you can help turn cute puppies into highly skilled, trained Guide Dogs, Autism Assistance Dogs or Therapy Dogs.
By sponsoring your very own litter of pups, you’ll share their joys and triumphs, as they train for their new career – and you’ll be helping people living with a vision impairment live with greater mobility and independence and the families of children living with severe Autism, more comfort, safety and inclusion.
“If you did not show your support by donating toward those little bundles of joy, our puppies, and their journey to become Guide Dogs or Autism Assistance Dogs, I wouldn’t be standing here today with my lovely Guide Dog and companion. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” – Margaret Williams
Your support can change lives
We receive no Government funding for our Guide Dog Program, which is why the support of the public is so important. Our training never stops. Month in and month out, we’re turning new puppies into premium Guide Dogs, Autism Assistance Dogs and Pets as Therapy Dogs – at a cost in excess of $30,000 for each dog! And to do that, we need ongoing, regular support.
Imagine the difference you can make
If you’ve ever seen a Guide Dog or Autism Assistance Dog in action, you’ll know what amazing animals they are. Highly disciplined, skilled and dependable, they offer an enhanced quality of life for individuals with impaired vision and children with severe Autism – and their families. They can make all the difference to someone’s quality of life. But this is possible only with your kind support.
This is only possible with your suppawt
Training of puppies starts almost immediately in the Puppy Development Centre, before they enter the loving homes of Volunteer Puppy Raisers at approximately ten weeks. Then, aged around 12 months, they come back to us as young dogs and begin intensive schooling.
It costs in excess of $30,000 to raise and train just one Guide Dog or Autism Assistance Dog to the high standards needed to change someone’s life. With your help we can make that possible.
Yes! I want to help.
