Support Guide Dogs And Hearing Dogs On National Dog Day
Did you know that today is August 26th? Well, of course, you do, but did you know that August 26th is also National Dog Day. This is the day we celebrate the relationship between dogs and their owners. Here at Udopt we support two great dog charities, Guide Dogs for the Blind and Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. The dogs raised and trained by these two amazing charities do so much for their owners, that we must make sure their hard work is celebrated.
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
One of the best ways to help out both charities is to sponsor a puppy. Hearing Dogs for Deaf People receives no government funding whatsoever, so it is important to help out by making a donation. You can do this by sponsoring one of their puppies for just £3.00 a month and for that princely sum you will receive a sponsorship certificate, a collection kennel, regular photo updates of your puppy’s progress and if you add just £2.00 more to your monthly donation and make it £5.00 a month you will also receive cute cuddly dog toy.
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People provide fully trained hearing dogs to people with hearing impairments for no fee. In the process, they transform the lives of the people who receive the dogs, making their lives easier and better. Hearing dogs are trained to alert their owners to important sounds and danger signals, as well as providing companionship, they also reduce the sense of isolation deaf people can feel whilst simultaneously increasing their independence.
Guide Dogs for The Blind
You can also choose to sponsor a puppy being raised and trained by Guide Dogs for the Blind. There are plenty of cute little critters to choose from. For just £4.33 a month, you will receive an online exclusive cuddly toy, a welcome pack which includes a sponsorship certificate and exclusive calendar, an e-certificate which you can download and regular updates about your chosen puppy.
It can be overstated how much a guide dog from Guide Dogs for The blind changes the life of someone who lacks vision. The charity has been raising and training guide dogs for more than 75 years now and these dogs give the partially sighted and blind people, the opportunity to become mobile and free. Aside from their ground-breaking work training guide dogs, the charity also campaigns for equal rights for people with visual impairments. It provides funding for eye research and runs confidence building rehabilitation programmes that give people with visual impairments a sense of confidence.
As you can see these are two great charities you can support on National Dog Day. So why not click on the charity of your choice and celebrate this great day by supporting one of these two fine organisations and help fund the important work that they do?
