🐾 MUNSTER APPEAL 🐾

Could your home help our next generation of life-changing puppies?

We're looking for Breeding Dog Volunteers across Munster to play a truly special role in the journey of our future Guide and Assistance Dogs.

As a Breeding Dog Volunteer, you'll welcome one of our breeding dogs into your family, care for them through pregnancy, and help give their puppies the very best start in life. Every litter born in your home could go on to change the life of someone who is blind or vision impaired, or a family of a child with autism.

We'll provide full training, on-going support, veterinary care, equipment and cover all associated costs – you simply provide a loving, caring home.

If you're home during the day, have a calm environment and would love to make a lasting difference, we'd love to hear from you.

We are particularly keen to hear from volunteers across Munster.
