Proudly Supporting Guide Dogs Victoria

At Houndztooth, we believe every dog deserves to live a healthy, happy life—especially those who dedicate their lives to helping others.

“Houndztooth proudly supports Guide Dogs Victoria through grooming and wellbeing support for their dogs.”

This partnership reflects our shared commitment to animal wellbeing and the vital role these dogs play in the community.

As a brand built on natural health and nutrition, supporting organisations like Guide Dogs Victoria is a natural extension of what we stand for.

Because when dogs thrive, lives change.

“As someone who has spent years focused on natural health and nutrition for dogs, this partnership is incredibly meaningful to me. The dogs at Guide Dogs Victoria give so much of themselves to support others, and they deserve the very best care in return. Being able to support their wellbeing through Houndztooth is something I’m genuinely proud of.” — Rachael Tricarico, Founder of Houndztooth

Guide Dogs Victoria is a leading organisation supporting people who are blind or have low vision to live the life they choose.

For over 65 years, they have provided life-changing services — from expertly trained Guide Dogs to orientation and mobility training, therapy programs, and broader support services that build independence and confidence.

At the heart of everything they do is a commitment to empowering individuals through highly trained dogs and tailored support, creating meaningful connections that enhance quality of life and help build more inclusive communities.

Guide Dogs Victoria has been a leader in breeding and training Guide Dogs since 1957, with global recognition for the quality of their dogs and training programs.

Each dog follows a carefully guided journey — from early development through to advanced training — where their skills, temperament, and behaviour are assessed to ensure they are matched with the right person.

Training is built on positive reinforcement, using food, praise and play to develop confident, reliable dogs who genuinely enjoy their work.

These dogs provide far more than mobility. They support independence, build confidence, and create meaningful connection.

While many go on to become Guide Dogs, others take on equally important roles as therapy, companion, or ambassador dogs — each making a difference in their own way.

It’s this level of care and dedication to every individual dog that makes supporting Guide Dogs Victoria so meaningful to us.

Through this partnership, Houndztooth contributes to the grooming, health, and overall wellbeing of Guide Dogs Victoria dogs — through both product and monetary support.

Whether in training, working, or retirement, these dogs deserve exceptional care — and we’re proud to play a small part in supporting them.

Every purchase helps us continue our commitment to better health and wellbeing for dogs everywhere.
