On this episode of the Seeing Eye Dogs Show, Harriet is joined by Cassandra Chiu co-founder and executive director of K9 Assistance in Singapore. Cassandra joined us on the show back in December 2023, almost a year later K9 Assistance has some exciting updates to share on progress in changing legislation in Singapore to grant public access for assistance dogs. We also chat about their ambassador dog, career-changed Seeing Eye Dog Sienna who had an important role in demonstrating the skills of assistance dogs.

At the time of the interview, Cassandra was in Melbourne completing her training with new Seeing Eye Dog Mandy, so we talk about their experiences on class with SED Mandy and the start of their partnership.

To finish off we have an interview with Dr Ashe Mooney sharing some vet tips and information on lumps for dogs. What you might be feeling for, what they might mean and how to work with your vet to diagnose and treat.
