Our Guide, Therapy and Autism Assistance Dogs do so much more than help Tasmanians with low vision, disability and illness to navigate the world around them. They do more than settle and calm a child living with autism, or someone struggling with trauma or illness.
These dogs give the gift of independence and confidence to their handlers, and it takes two years of intensive training to prepare them for their unique task. They bring joy and companionship, hope and opportunity not only to the people whose lives they are changing, but also to their families.
By leaving a gift in your Will to Guide Dogs Tasmania, you will not only support the training of these incredible dogs, your gift will help many more Tasmanians realise the power of the bond between human and dog in achieving greater freedom, independence and companionship.
We honour the generosity of our wonderful supporters who have included Guide Dogs Tasmania in their Will, by inviting them to join The Merran Thurley Society.
