Puppy Pals

What is the Puppy Pal program?

Our playful puppies may be small and cute but they have a big job ahead. One day they’ll be a life-changing addition to the home of a Western Australian who living low vision, disability or illness.

For less than a dollar a day, you can help raise them, train them and keep them healthy.
