Don McGowan, a retired IT executive, oversees and coordinates outreach volunteers for The Seeing Eye’s Pennies for Puppies and Dollars for Dogs programs. He will share the ins and outs of being a Foster Puppy Raiser, along with heartwarming stories of how these remarkable puppies enhance lives—from their temporary foster families to their future partners in independence.
For over 30 years, our doctors and pet care team have proudly veterinary care to Seeing Eye and Guiding Eye puppies in our community. We hope to inspire local families to step up and open their homes to these puppies, helping teach house manners, basic obedience, and socialization in everyday environments—from shopping trips and car rides to airports and airplanes.
If you’ve ever considered fostering a future guide dog, this is an event you won’t want to miss! (And you might get to meet a pup or two!)
As our pets age, their needs change. Join Dr. Dawn Fiedorczyk in our Pet Parent Lecture Series at the West Milford Library for an in-depth discussion on how to support our senior companions. Dr. Fiedorczyk will cover everything from managing health issues to providing mental and emotional support, offering guidance on how to make the most of your pet’s golden years. Our goal is to give you as many quality years together as possible. Whether your pet is in their twilight years or approaching them, this lecture will help you navigate their unique care requirements.
