For the last aired show for 2021, we're joined by Ron Hooton CEO of Vision Australia to talk about the year in review at Seeing Eye Dogs and what we can look forward to in 2022.

Harriet then talks with Seeing Eye Dogs kennel attendant Leonie Picker about life at kennels. We chat about what goes on a Seeing Eye Dogs' facility in Kensington and what the dogs get up to whilst boarding or living their through their formal training.

To finish off Dr Nicola provides us with some helpful and interesting tips on young puppy socialisation. We chat about the safest ways to exercise and socialise a puppy who is not fully vaccinated minimising risks.

We are looking for puppy carers now so if you're keen to raise a puppy to hopefully become a Seeing Eye Dog we'd like to hear from you! It's an incredibly rewarding experience, with training provided. Carers need time, patience and love to give to a puppy, so if you want to commit to a year of puppy raising, we would love your help. If you live in the North Brisbane or Sunshine Coast regions of Queensland or in Victoria in Geelong, Bendigo and select areas of metro Melbourne (listed on our Website) get in touch to find out about volunteering with us or apply now via our website.
