Top 10 Dog Questions For Puppy Raisers

I was reading another puppy raiser blog years ago and I came across an article about t-shirts with the answers to some very common puppy raiser guide dog questions that I hear on a daily basis.  I went back to Google the other night and did my best to look up the same blog post, but unfortunately could not find the original.

I did however come across another blog: Failures of a Puppy Raiser that had a similar t-shirt with the “Answers”.  Basically a shirt that listed common service/guide dog questions answered by a puppy raiser.  If you’re a guide dog puppy raiser (or a puppy raiser of any kind) then I think you’ll appreciate this post.

6. No, I did not choose the puppy’s name

4. Washington, Kansas
3. 18 – 24 months
2. Black and Yellow Labrador Retrievers and Golden Retrievers

Great T-Shirt!!!  Although the “Answers” would be slightly different for me and my guide dog group, I’d love to print up a similar T-Shirt to present the answers to these common guide dog questions for puppy raisers.

I’ve never made a t-shirt in the past, but I’ve heard it’s not to difficult to create a shirt using either Zazzle or CafePress.  Here’s what I think I’d do for our guide dog puppy group:

Maybe I can come up with a more general list of Puppy Raiser answers that would apply to all puppy raisers, print up the shirts, and sell them online so I can make another donation to our guide dog group.  What do you think?  Would you buy a shirt with the “answers” to common dog questions asked of us puppy raisers?  What “Answers” to service/guide dog questions would you have on your Puppy Raiser T-Shirt?

I think I might put together a mockup of a T-Shirt with “The Answers” to common dog questions for puppy raisers…If I do I’ll share in an upcoming blog post.
