Things You'll Need
- Puppy food
- 2 puppy serving dishes
- Leash
- Plastic bags
Instructions
Attend 4-H puppy club meetings, as scheduled, to learn more about the program and to socialize with other Seeing Eye dogs and their foster owners.
Feed your puppy three times a day, using the specific serving recommendations on the puppy food package. Change the water in your puppy's serving dish regularly.
Monitor your dog for any signs of illness and take it to the vet immediately if necessary.
Leash your dog and take it outside as much as possible. Prepare your puppy for Seeing Eye service by exposing it to situations it may encounter with its blind owner, such as crowded stores, elevators, cars, stairwells and slippery surfaces. Clean up after your dog by bagging its excrement and disposing of it properly.
