Join our Team of Puppy Raisers and Formal Boarders

Our team of volunteer Puppy Raisers, Formal and Temporary Boarders do an amazing job of providing short, medium and longer term homes for puppies and young adult dogs in training.

Guide Dogs WA provides all food, toys, bedding, leads, collars, veterinary costs. With close guidance from our expert trainers, you will be required to maintain training and obedience regimes, while enjoying the fun and companionship that comes with sharing your home with a Guide or Assistance Dog in training.

We encourage you to attend a Puppy Raising Information Session  or a Formal & Temporary Boarding Information Session to learn more.
