Esther and Isha – matched 2020

It can be a very lonely place being blind and having a Seeing Eye Dog fills the gap.

I call Isha my little pocket rocket. Isha loves her soft toys. She is so funny she makes a grunting sound when she wants your attention. She almost sounds like a tennis player.

I’m crazy about her and also AFL. Isha and I now go to games together and she even has a special allocated seat at the Gabba.

She gives me a lot of love and provides me with independence.

Libby and Buffy – matched 2020

My previous Seeing Eye Dog, Quinn retired three years ago and lived with us until he passed in April (he was 15). It was really hard.

I stopped going out, I stopped being active.

Now with Buffy, I’m active, I’m confident and I have a sense of freedom back again. Buffy is very sweet and cheeky.

At home she loves picking up my son’s socks as he doesn’t always put them in the laundry.

We call her Buffy ‘the obstacle slayer’.

Buffy has lightened my life and given me back my confidence.
