Life of a carer and pup: Catherine Bentley

View descriptionShare

On this episode of the Seeing Eye Dogs Show, Harriet is joined by puppy carer Catherine Bentley to talk about her life and story as a busy working mum and experienced puppy carer. We discuss raising puppies working on a university campus, what's to love about this volunteering role and what a Seeing Eye Dogs puppy learns from attending lots of busy kids' sporting commitments. Volunteers help prepare puppies for working roles as Seeing Eye Dogs, so here's some behind the scenes of how our puppies gain essential skills in their first year thanks to our amazing carers like Catherine.

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. We're looking for carers now in parts of Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales listed on our website. Get in touch to find out about volunteering with us or apply now via our website.
