Guide Dogs is searching for puppy raisers - and you won't be left out of pocket

It started with two British pioneers almost 100 years ago - and has transformed countless lives in its time. Muriel Crooke and Rosamund Bond began Guide Dogs in 1931 after organising the training of the first four guide dogs from a garage in Wallasey, Merseyside.

Today, Guide Dogs is the world's largest breeder and trainer of working dogs - and has placed more than 36,000 dogs with owners in need. They're now accepting applications from people who want to become puppy raisers as part of the organisation's excellent partnership training programme, which "prepares puppies for the next stages of becoming guide dogs ".
