Story
🐾 Woofs! Hello and thank you for visiting Maxine’s JustGiving page 🐾
My name is Clyde, and I’m a Guide Dog puppy in training. On behalf of me, my puppy pals, and all Guide Dogs everywhere, thank you so much for stopping by – we really appreciate it (tails wagging already!).
In June 2024, Maxine set herself a huge challenge: to run the London Landmarks Half Marathon for Guide Dogs, a charity extremely close to her heart. She completed her first LLHM in 2025, and this will be her second year in succession – because once Maxine commits, she doesn’t do things by halves (only half marathons 🐕🦺).
Fun fact: I am Maxine’s 14th sponsored Guide Dog puppy. That’s an incredible 98 dog-years’ worth of sponsorship, all dedicated to helping puppies like me grow up to change lives.
This year, Maxine wants to go even further. In 2025, she smashed her fundraising target – and for 2026, she’s aiming higher than ever, with a bold goal of £2,500. Every pound raised helps Guide Dogs train puppies like me so that one day we can support people with sight loss to live independent, confident lives.
🏃♀️ The Challenge
Maxine is aiming to complete the Half Marathon in under 2 hours. Any extra donations or “performance incentives” to keep her motivated will be very gratefully received – we’ll be waiting at the finish line with cuddles, wagging tails, and puppy kisses to say thank you!
💛 Every £1 truly makes a difference
Your donation will help fund:
Puppy training
Specialist equipment
Ongoing support for Guide Dog partnerships
Please consider supporting Maxine and helping puppies like me achieve our dream of becoming working Guide Dogs.
Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and support.
LOTS OF LICKS AND WOOFS
Clyde xx 🐾
