Did you know that Southeastern Guide Dogs breeds, raises, and trains some of the finest guide dogs, service dogs, and skilled companion dogs in the world? The puppies are adorable, but to witness these amazing dogs in training is nothing short of miraculous. Thanks to the intelligence and fine training of these dogs, people with vision loss, veterans with disabilities, and children with significant challenges find the freedom, confidence, and independence they need.

I have been fortunate enough to raise two dogs and am now co-raising my third, Felix. As you may know Southeastern Guide Dogs relies 100% on private donations, receives no government funding, and does not charge for their dogs or services, I am excited to again participate in the biggest fundraiser of the year, the Walkathon. My goal this year is to raise funds to sponsor either a puppy or provide a scholarship to a service veteran and am looking forward in continuing my support to the life changing mission of Southeastern Guide Dogs.
