It costs $50k to train-up a single Seeing Eye Dogs pup.
These Seeing Eye Dogs provide vital support, constant companionship, independence and contribute to an all-round better quality of life for people in our community who are blind or have low vision.
Since 2014, the Petbarn Foundation has donated $6.169m to train-up 125 Seeing Eye Dogs.
Damian and his SED Ebony
“With Ebony, I have the confidence to go to places and to explore new areas,” says Damo.
“Each Christmas the family go to their favourite camping spot and Ebony knows our caravan and all the local shops, and she loves swimming in the water.”
“I wouldn’t be confident to do a lot of what I do without Ebony. In particular, work and personal travel. Travelling in an unfamiliar environment can be difficult, and it’s so much easier with a Seeing Eye Dog.”
Esther and her SED Isha
“It can be a very lonely place being blind and having a Seeing Eye Dog fills the gap.
I call Isha my little pocket rocket. Isha loves her soft toys. She is so funny she makes a grunting sound when she wants your attention. She almost sounds like a tennis player.
I’m crazy about her and also AFL. Isha and I now go to games together and she even has a special allocated seat at the Gabba.
She gives me a lot of love and provides me with independence.”
