Volunteers are urgently needed to raise puppies who will become guide dogs for vision impaired New Zealanders.
In the next three months, Blind Low Vision NZ, an organisation that trains and provides guide dogs, estimates 40 puppies will need homes.
Only 10 homes have been confirmed so far, Rochelle Corrigan, puppy placement and development manager, said.
