About This Opportunity

Breeder carers play a vital role in bringing future CNIB guide dogs into the world by caring for one of our adult dogs from 12 months of age through the end of their breeding career, as well as supporting whelping and the early socialization of puppies up to 12 weeks old. The duration of the breeder carer role could be for approximately six months up to a number of years.

Breeder carers are responsible for meeting regularly with a CNIB Guide Dogs brood stock supervisor, transporting the dogs for all breeding related activities as well as coming to veterinary clinics or other locations like CNIB offices or shopping centres for regular obedience training visits. 

This role is best suited to people who have a great deal of flexibility and are willing to have a brood dog and young puppies into their home.
