Seeing Eye Dogs handler Nicole Tillotson and her dog Trixie join us to talk about their upcoming fundraising adventure Trek For Vision. We talk about their partnership and working together to achieve their goals. Nicole is working toward this Trek and a half-marathon and encourages people to set challenges and work toward their goals, especially for a good cause!
Trek for Vision with Trixie 2026 is raising funds for Seeing Eye Dogs Youth Program and you can support Nicole and Trixie's effort in the Trek here: https://vision-australia.grassrootz.com/visionaustralia-greatoceanwalk-2026/nicole-tillotson with funds going towards the Seeing Eye Dogs Youth Program.
Then we have part of an interview from the archives with Youth Program participant graduate Perle Peel who talks to us about her experience in the program. She has now graduated as a team with her Seeing Eye Dog Jetta. The Youth Program was a valuable experience that prepared her for life with Jetta, so please consider making a donation to keep the program running for 2027. You can hear the whole interview on the Podcast now.
