Puppies need YOU!


Recommended Posts

The Centre Aliénor school for guide dogs for the blind is in urgent need of more volunteer puppy-walkers, 'familles d'acceuil'.

Puppy walkers take the puppies home at 2 months and teach them all their basic training until, at around a year old, the dogs go into full training.

The feeling when one of 'your' puppies strides out in harness with his new master/mistress is amazing!

You get great support and advice from the school's experienced staff, and of course all food is supplied and vets fees covered. When the dogs and bitches are neutered, or when the bitches are on heat you have no worries as they are cared for in school at those 'difficult' times.

It doesn't matter if your French isn't brilliant, it's not a problem if you already have you own dogs/cats/hamsters and if you need to go away the school will place the puppy with another family temporarily.

If you/one of you is at home most of the day and you love dogs why not give it a try?
