VuCare Volunteer Puppy Parents

 

VuCare has a team of Volunteer Puppy Parents who work tirelessly and they all have one thing in common, a genuine love of animals and a desire to see them safe, happy and healthy.

Our Volunteer Puppy Parents walk the dogs, spend time with the dogs, help with administration and fundraising. Puppy Parent Volunteers need to be 18 years of age or older.

We also have occasional Puppy Friend volunteers for specific work experience programs. Puppy Friend Volunteers need to be at least 14 years of age.

All you need to be a Puppy Parent or Friend is a genuine love of animals, a genuine desire to work with dogs, be physically fit, enjoy walking and be the appropriate age. You will also need to make a commitment of 2 hours or more per visit either fortnightly or monthly.

If you have, or know of, a puppy/young dog, which you think might be suitable for training, please contact our pooch support team by calling our Head Office on 1300 363 700 or by email at poochteam@vucare.com.au.

VuCare Assistance Dogs - Helping People with Varying Disabilities in Australia


VuCare was founded in 2006 and first commenced training dogs in 2008. Our goal is to train 6 new dogs each year. These dogs will then go on helping people with varying disabilities throughout Australia.

The dogs themselves vary both in size and breed from little Fox Terrier to large St. Bernards! From pedigree dogs to cross breeds from rescue centres. They also donated by a group of caring breeders, VuCare members and loving members of the public.

If you have, or know of, a puppy/young dog, which you think might be suitable for training, please contact our pooch support team by calling our Head Office on 1300 363 700 or by email at poochteam@vucare.com.au.
