Let's pair you with a puppy! 

We need dog lovers to provide cuddles and care for our Seeing Eye Dogs puppies on their training journey. With your guidance and support, a Seeing Eye Dogs puppy can grow up to make a life-changing impact for a person who is blind or has low vision. 

Before you join our community of dog-loving volunteers, an information session can let you know what’s involved and answer any questions you have. We also have some FAQs.

Upcoming information sessions

Information session: online (VIC, NSW, QLD)

We will be holding our first online information session for 2026 on Wednesday, January 28, from 6pm to 7pm (AEDT).

Meet and greet events

Our puppy caring community hold regular ‘meet and greet’ events with their puppy development trainers. Fun and informal, these catch ups are a great way to meet other carers and learn more about the rewarding experience of volunteering for Seeing Eye Dogs. 

We continually update this section with upcoming events, so don’t forget to come back to see where we will be popping up next.
