Welcome to Channel Islands Puppy Raisers Web Site

 
Channel Islands Puppy Raisers is a group of individuals and families who have volunteered to provide foster care for guide dog puppies under the auspices of Guide Dogs of America (GDA).  Our members receive their puppies from the GDA breeding kennels when they are about eight weeks old and are responsible for their care and training until they are returned to GDA at one to one and one half years of age for intensive formal guide dog training and subsequent placement with  person who is blind or visually impaired.
