My Nonprofit Reviews

I volunteer Sunday mornings at the Guiding Eyes for the Blind’s Breeding Kennel in Patterson New York. I clean the dogs’ kennels, feed them and walk them. It is a very fulfilling experience. I know I’m helping produce the next generation of guide dogs. The fact that all the dogs are all so sweet, cute and adorable certainly helps gets me out of bed to arrive at the kennel by 7:00am.

I volunteer in the breeding kennel in Patterson, NY on Sunday mornings. I assist in cleaning the kennels as well as feeding and exercising the dogs. I find it very fulfilling to help such a wonderful nonprofit as Guiding Eyes for the Blind. Working with the dogs is a real treat.

In addition to volunteering, I have also participated in the Home Socialization program. This involves taking young puppies into my home for several days. While with me I reinforce commands and introduce the pups to sights, sounds and flooring textures found in the average home. Guide dogs need to be comfortable in all sorts of situations. I really enjoy it. The puppies are just adorable. It always amazes me how quickly they learn to climb stairs. Coming back down takes longer for the pups to master. I always miss them when I return them to the kennel.
