GDA Volunteers Pick Up “F” and “G” Litters!

Guide Dogs of America’s volunteer puppy raiser families foster our puppies from the age of 8 weeks until the dogs enter formal guide dog training at around 18 months of age. Volunteer puppy raisers recently picked up GDA’s “F” and “G” litters.

Guide Dogs of America’s “F” litter of puppies went home with their GDA volunteer puppy raisers on September 9, 2016. The black Labrador Retrievers are pictured here with their raisers at Guide Dogs of America’s campus.
