We’re delighted to share the latest news from Doris, the guide dog for the blind we sponsor, and she’s doing brilliantly in her training!
Our sponsored guide dog, Doris, continues to make wonderful progress in her training! She’s now confidently travelling by bus, train, and van, settling calmly by her trainer’s side.
Doris has taken well to wearing her full training harness, learning to associate it with exciting outings. She’s mastered finding kerbs and is now practising how to guide safely around obstacles — an essential skill for her future role.
She’s also improving her recall and focus during walks, with a little extra “sniff time” built into her sessions to keep her happy and attentive.
Next up, Doris will be exploring busier routes to test her skills in new environments. We’re so proud of how far she’s come and can’t wait to see her continue to shine!
