On the Seeing Eye Dogs Show, for our Mother's Day special we shine a spotlight on breeding dog "Lucy" and her life with her breeder carer Sharon.

Harriet is joined by Seeing Eye Dogs volunteer Sharon De Souza who shares her story of 10+ years of volunteering and talks about her volunteering as a breeder carer for Lucy and puppy carer for many puppies including two of Lucy's daughters Debbie and Freya.

If you've ever wondered about the life of a breeding dog and breeder carer, stay tuned!

We’re looking for more breeder carer volunteers in select regions of Melbourne listed on our website. Breeder carers care for the dogs in their homes full-time, and transport the dog to the Seeing Eye Dogs kennel facility in Kensington, VIC for breeding activities.  These dogs are over 1 year old accepted into the breeding colony selected for their lovely natures and maintain their manners during their time in the breeding program. Find out about breeder caring here: https://sed.visionaustralia.org/volunteer/breeding-dog

We're also open for puppy caring and training dog caring across other regions of VIC, NSW & QLD. If you'd like to find out more about Seeing Eye Dogs, the work we do, other caring roles or becoming a handler, head to our website: https://sed.visionaustralia.org/.
