Meet Boss.

He’s a black lab with big dreams, and he’s got a big job ahead of him.

Being the seeing eye dog for three-time Paralympian Gerrard Gosens, he’s used to a challenge.

His very important day job is no easy feat.

But now he’s gearing up for the Queen’s Baton Relay ahead of the Commonwealth Games at the Gold Coast.

Boss and Gosen will be running the ceremonial baton from the Graceville State School bus stop in Brisbane on March 30, just before 5pm.
