Golden retriever demonstration dog India at the Guide Dogs Crufts stand. Her trainer places a line of food in front of her on a low table to demonstrate impulse control.

Next weekend we will be appearing at Crufts, one of the most famous dog shows in the world. The show takes place over four days, from March 6th to March 9th at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham.

Visitors to our community stand will be able to learn more about how we train and support our guide dogs and their owners, as well as all the other incredible work we do. Our team of volunteers, including Puppy Raisers and Breeding Dog Holders, will also be hand to share their experiences and provide insight into the rewarding volunteering roles available.

There will also be a great selection of Guide Dogs merchandise available to purchase, the proceeds of which will directly benefit the charity.

And for those that can’t make it in person, we will also be featured on Channel 4’s coverage of the event. Guide Dogs has helped with a short film presented by Radzi Chinyanganya about our guide dog mums, as well as an interview with one of our wonderful trainers with ‘sponsor a puppy’ Hazel – don’t forget to tune in!
