More power to puppies in red
It costs $22,500 to breed, raise and train a guide dog in New Zealand.
The 2007 Red Puppy Appeal is all about giving power to the puppies that will go on to empower blind, deaf blind and visually impaired people.
(...)
After about six months of training most dogs will be ready to be matched with a visually impaired person and will work for eight to 10 years.
For more information on the Red Puppy Appeal or to volunteer to be a collector phone 0800 RED PUPPY (0800 733 787) or visit www.redpuppy.org.nz.
