Joanne says her loyal Guide Dog has given her back her confidence.

“She helped me come out of my shell because I had become quite introverted following surgery...People come up to me all the time and start chatting and asking about Ginny. She’s helped me socially in many ways.”

Did you know Guide Dogs can go anywhere? That's why it's important that our puppies in training get as much exposure to different situations. Here is little Trafford waiting patiently at a swimming carnival 🏊. Such a good boy!
