Name a puppy - change a life

A name is the first gift that a guide dog puppy receives and is a chance for you to become part of their life-changing story, so, what will you call yours?

Our Name a Puppy experience has three different levels; Walk, Learn and Guide. Get in touch and we'll help you choose the one that's right for you.

Walk sponsorship- In return of a donation of £5,000, name a guide dog puppy and receive personalised updates and photos throughout their first year. You even get to meet your very own special puppy.

Learn sponsorship
- In return of a donation of £10,000, name a guide dog puppy, receive individual updates and beautiful photographs from birth to qualification as a guide dog, and enjoy the amazing experience of meeting them- twice! It takes around 20 months to transform a tiny puppy into a confident guide dog, and you can proudly follow them every step of the way.

Guide sponsorship- If you want to support Guide Dogs in an even bigger way, Guide combines the benefits of our Learn scheme with additional personalised benefits. This is a gift of a lifetime and is offered to sponsors giving gifts of £50,000 and over.

Donate a Name - If you wish to just donate a name for a puppy, you can do this for a gift of £2,500. In return, we'll send you a photograph of your puppy and a certificate.
