My Nonprofit Reviews

Our experience being a puppy raiser for Guide Dogs of Texas has been nothing short of an amazing experience. We started on our journey with our first pup, Mark, when he was 8-weeks old and had him until he was 2.5 years old, much longer than normal due to the pandemic. He was a joy to work with and many tears were shed when he returned to campus for Advanced Training, but we knew he was destined for great things. We received our second GDIT, Nemo, when he was about 1.5 years old, just a few days after Mark left us. I'm sure there will be many tears shed when he moves on from us, but to know that he is helping someone gain some independence and help them navigate the world by themselves is totally worth it.
