Some adorable photos of Izzy, who, loves here toys! She, like Champ and Hank, are almost 7 months old now already.

She is very playful, so she can get distracted sometimes, but is still a very diligent little pup and a fast learner.

Some early photos of our sponsored puppies from the homes where they are being socialised. Normally this happens at HQ in Cork but with Covid restrictions and with the pups all being born in Kildare, it was felt it would be better to keep them close by and have volunteers help with their social skills. This is an extra step this year so some nice bonus images before they head to their puppy raisers in a few weeks’ time.

Melt your heart cuteness!

Check out these recent photos of Hank, our sponsored Guide Dog for the Blind.  He is loving life and befriends most animals he meets. His puppy raiser, Bernadette, says he is doing very well, very intelligent, obedient and diligent to work. He's almost 9 months old now and growing fast. He will remain with his puppy raiser, Bernadette, for around another 3 to 4 months depending on scheduling of training at HQ in Cork.

We are delighted to share that April, Andrew and Aska are getting on well with their new puppy raisers and settling in with all the family.

Check out these gorgeous photos of Izzy sent by her raiser Emma at the weekend. Here she is enjoying the beautiful scenery (and company) in Galway and making the trip over to Dursey Island, Cork via the cable car which she took all in her stride!

Check out our sponsored Guide Dog in training April.  Isn't she a beauty?  Thanks to her puppy raiser Amanda for sending in these fab photos. She is clearly thriving and doing really well on her career path.

As you can see, Hank is growing into a handsome young man for sure. He is great with other animals and takes his role at the allotment Bernadette and her husband have very seriously indeed :)

Champ has been busy over the last few months.  At the Botanical Gardens in June. Lunch at Skerries Mills in July. Coffee on the pier in Howth in Aug. He's loving life!

We're delighted that Champ, Izzy and Hank are all really going well in their training and likely to make their way to Cork for formal training in late September or early October.
