WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED TO KNOW?
Volunteer Puppy Training involves looking after and caring for one of their puppies or young dogs on a full-time basis, in your own home. Depending on your location, preferences and the puppy itself this could be from anywhere between 6-18 months at a time so requires a great deal of commitment.
Don’t worry – you won’t be on your own! Once registered, you will have access to the Hearing Dogs online portal where there is a wealth of knowledge & information about training the dogs alongside ‘Dog Club Live’ a monthly online training class for all volunteers. As well as this you will have virtual dog classes & one-to-one support, coaching and guidance from your local Puppy Training/Dog Training Instructor. Extra support may come from your group of volunteer peers who will be training puppies of the same age.
