AN urgent appeal for puppy walking volunteers has been released by The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association.

The association is searching for volunteers from the Warrington area to join their team. Volunteers will be asked to care and educate guide dog pups in their own home, until they are ready to begin their specialised guide dog training.

Volunteers have to fulfil a number of conditions before they can begin care and training. Conditions include having access to a car, fencing your garden and living in low-level accommodation, with direct access to a yard or garden.
