"We are born of love; Love is our mother." - Rumi
💐🦮
Today, we’re celebrating all mothers, and that includes the exceptional four-legged moms of all our puppies at Guiding Eyes for the Blind.
💐🦮
Mothers are there to care for us and provide some of life’s most important lessons, and our canine moms are no different. That’s why we do everything we can to help them raise happy, healthy puppies, who will grow up to become devoted guide dogs – and dedicated companions – for the people who need them most.
💐🦮
From our moms to yours – Happy Mother’s Day!
