Guiding Eyes for the Blind is an organization that changes lives - one pup at a time.

Please consider making a donation to support my Wag-a-Thon, a month-long virtual marathon I am participating in with my dog,Dakota, this May. Together we will complete an entire marathon all while raising funds and creating awareness for a cause that means so much to me.

Guiding Eyes for the Blind changes lives by connecting amazing people with extraordinary dogs. For individuals who are blind or visually impaired, a Guiding Eyes dog means freedom, confidence, and the opportunity to experience all of life's adventures - big and small. From Home Training to Special Needs to Running Guides and more, Guiding Eyes's pioneering programs are individualized to each student. Together, these dogs are paired with just the right student - and both their lives are forever changed.

You can be a part of this life-changing mission by making a donation today!

Dakota is my first puppy that I am raising for Guiding Eyes. She will be 7 months old on May 19th. I got her on January 6th and will have her until she is around 18 months old- around next April. She will then be returned to the Guiding Eyes facility up in New York for evaluation. Upon passing her tests she will go through formal guide dog training and be placed with a blind graduate at around 2 years old. Dogs are placed with blind people at NO COST to them or their families. These dogs truly are a gift and a blessing!
Please make a donation to help Guiding Eyes and all their volunteers raise wonderful guide dogs for years to come!

Thank you for your support!
