On July 4th we took on Kirsty, our Seeing Eye Dog Puppy. She was 8 weeks old when she joined us and we will be her Puppy Carers until she is about 1 year old. She will then go on for formal training and placement with her new owner.
We have learned a lot about dogs in a short space of time! Seeing Eye Dogs Australia provide all her food & vet costs and Bev (the trainer) meets us weekly/fortnightly to support and further Kirsty's training. We also go on interesting outings once a month with the other SEDA puppies, like to a firestation or camel farm.
Kirsty goes everywhere with us. She is now well known at school, kindy and the local community. Living in the Crean household has made her bombproof and very tolerant of children!
