Free Puppies Forever Helps Raise Dogs for Seeing Eye Dogs Australia

— March 10, 2016 — Lifestyle
The Free Puppies Forever program is a sign-up subscription service that provides consumers with a free puppy, food, vet shots and even kennel costs during vacation. The puppies are left with owners until their first birthday when they are accepted into the Seeing Eye Dogs Australia program to becoming seeing eye dogs for those that are visually impaired. The initiative finds temporary homes for the puppies until they are old enough to enter the program.

Since puppies are often beloved by many consumers, the Free Puppies Forever subscription service draws a lot of appeal to those wanting a pet -- but only for a temporary period of time. The service lets consumers enjoy a puppy free of charge and without a long-term commitment while simultaneously helping to set the dog up for its services to the Seeing Eye Dogs foundation.
Trend Themes
1. Subscription Pet Services - There is a growing trend in subscription-based pet services that offer pet owners a temporary but fulfilling pet ownership experience without the long-term commitment.
2. Socially Responsible Pet Adoption - There is a trend in socially responsible pet adoption, such as Free Puppies Forever, where pet adoption is linked to a social cause or an organization.
3. Pet-assisted Therapy - There is a trend in the use of dogs in pet-assisted therapy, where dogs are trained to provide emotional support to individuals with disabilities and illnesses.
Industry Implications
1. Pet Care Industry - The pet care industry has an opportunity to disrupt traditional pet adoption models by creating innovative subscription-based services that offer temporary pet ownership experiences.
2. Nonprofit Sector - The nonprofit sector has an opportunity to partner with businesses and create innovative social impact models, such as linking pet adoption with a social cause or organization.
3. Healthcare Industry - The healthcare industry has an opportunity to explore innovative pet-assisted therapy models that use dogs trained to provide emotional support to individuals with disabilities and illnesses.
