HOW dogs unleash life: Mobility dogs are trained to:
activate pedestrian crossing and elevator buttons
assist with transfers to/from a wheelchair
retrieve dropped items - eg car keys, pens, credit cards
fetch items - eg phones, remote controls, books
open doors
turn lights on & off
and much more. Find out more about our dogs, and read some stories about our working teams.
How YOU can help unleash life Mobility Dogs receives NO government funding. It costs $25,000 to raise, train and match a mobility dog.
Organisations 'unleashing life!' Thank you to our sponsors and key supporters, who make Mobility Dogs' work possible.
