Hot weather can be wonderful, bringing longer days, time outdoors and more opportunities to be active. But for dogs it can also bring real risks. Unlike us, dogs can’t easily regulate their temperature, meaning even a short time in the heat can quickly become dangerous.
We have teamed up with football legend Stuart Pearce to launch a new campaign encouraging people to volunteer as a hearing dog puppy trainer.
Kasper had his first trip to the garden centre, Marco is working on his soundwork, Wilbur is showing off his treat catching skills and so much more.
There’s a lot to celebrate! Mowgli has passed his final assessment, Astrid is taking her new training jacket out for a spin, and Jazzy took his first trip on the bus. Well done to all our lovely pups and their teams!
Hearing Dogs has a BBC Lifeline Appeal airing on BBC One at 2.05pm on Sunday 24 May.
This 10-minute televised appeal will bring our work, and the stories of the people we support, to a national audience.
Our Helpdesk gets asked a lot of questions about living with hearing loss and the type of support we offer.
From a special first with Aston as he tried on a training jacket, to taking on the busses with Taylor and practicing alerting to the alarm clock with Pickles, our pups have had a busy month.
