On this episode of the Seeing Eye Dogs Show, Harriet is joined by Seeing Eye Dogs Senior Instructor Brooke Anderson. Brooke is going to talk to us about the exciting new Navigating My Path program which will help inform and prepare potential handlers about all things dog guide mobility. This program brings a taste of life with a Seeing Eye Dog to our clients over 18 and comes after the success of the Youth Program. We also talk generally about eligibility for a Seeing Eye Dog.

Navigating My Path program is open to people who are blind or have low vision across Australia who travel independently but are interested in the benefits of dog guide mobility. The program will run from June 2026 but enrolment is open now. Reach out to Brooke: Brooke.Anderson@visionaustralia.org or give her a call on 0448 093 817 or head to the website: https://sed.visionaustralia.org/about-us/news-and-stories/25-10-20/navigating-my-path-independent-mobility-program to find out about the program or apply.
