Guide dog and service dog puppies are placed with carefully screened foster families and individuals, known as “puppy raisers,”
when they are 8 weeks old, learning proper house manners, and basic obedience.
Puppy raising volunteers are an essential part of our training program. Every successful guide dog and service dog team had a puppy raiser
who gave them plenty of love, taught them basic skills and provided experiences to allow them to feel safe in the world.
