Mobility Dogs is currently looking for suitable puppy-raising homes. Our puppy-raisers are an integral part of the success of our organisation. The role of a puppy-raiser is to provide the puppy with love, care, basic obedience, general socialisation and confidence during the first 12-14 months.
The responsibilities of a puppy-raiser include:
- providing a warm, secure, fenced home environment for the puppy to develop and learn in
- providing company throughout most of the day
- regular feeding and care of the puppy
- exercising and training the puppy
- attending classes and outings arranged by Mobility Dogs
Mobility Dogs provides continuing assistance and guidance to puppy-raisers through Puppy Classes and home visits.
We also provide:
- food, veterinary care and Council registration
- equipment
- ongoing support
Meet some Mobility Dogs puppy-raisers in the Southern Lakes District and read about their experiences.
If you are interested, please fill out the puppy-raising form, and we'll contact you to discuss this further.
