Isn't this cool?! #GuideDog #PuppyRaiser #Seattle
PUPPIES OF PENZANCE! * We were very paw-leased to welcome 13 Guide Dogs for the Blind puppies-in-training and their raisers to the dress rehearsal of The Pirates of Penzance. Attending live theater is a great opportunity for environmental socialization, where these future guide dog candidates can experience unusual sounds like soaring vocals and loud applause, and work on skills like settling for longer periods of time, ignoring distractions, polite greetings, and navigating crowds. These pups are all in the "puppy raising" stage, where they'll spend 13-15 months with a "raiser" from Seattle Puppy Raisers before heading to guide dog training in California or Oregon. We're so glad we got to be a small part of their journey! Guide Dogs for the Blind - Seattle Puppy Raisers is an all volunteer puppy raising group for Guide Dogs for the Blind. If you're interested in volunteering to raise a pup, check out www.gdbseattlepuppyraisers.com

Here’s our newest puppy-in-training! This is Molly -- our second goldendoodle! She’s being raised by our long-time puppy raisers Mitch and Nancy!

three cutout images of a fluffy, light brown Goldendoodle puppy named Molly. The background is pastel pink with a pattern of white daisies, small rainbows, and yellow sunbursts. At the top, the text reads "Meet Molly" in a bold, cursive font with a dark brown outline, giving it a 3D effect. Below, in a smaller orange script, the text says, "Follow her journey to become a service dog!" Molly is depicted in three different playful poses: Standing with a red collar, looking straight ahead. Leaping forward energetically. Standing confidently with a fluffy coat. The overall aesthetic is cheerful, warm, and inviting, emphasizing Molly's training journey to become a service dog.

Honored and grateful to have raised three future service dogs. 🙏 🐾 These amazing pups bring independence, comfort, and so much joy to their future human partners. ❤️ #GuideDogs #PuppyRaiser

Behavioral scientists are studying puppies in hopes of developing a behavior model that can predict the likelihood a dog will successfully complete training and enter the canine workforce.
They’re all good boys and girls, but only some can be service dogs
For now, there is no way to predict which dogs will make good workers, but canine behavioral scientists are trying to change that.
