Picture of Harry

Hi. My name is Harry, I'm a Guide Dog Puppy in Training and this is my Blog.

Atherton Appeal

Harry supported Guide Dogs' appeal to equip the brand new training school for the North of England at Atherton. He was keen to help as he was to be one of the first puppies to train at the new school.

Harry was at the launch of the appeal on 7th October 2008 where he got to meet the Press. One of the newspaper articles can be seen here.

King of the Castle

Harry has recently become very adept at posing in particularly scenic locations, probably because there’s usually a treat involved. However, getting him to sit still on the beach, for even just one second, proved to be almost impossible. Bamburgh beach has to be one of the most beautiful beaches in this country, especially with the back drop of the magnificent castle, so we had what can only be called a conflict of interest.

Harry desperately wanted his treat, but on the other hand he desperately wanted to run, jump, sniff, play and do whatever else dogs do when on the beach. But Harry is part Labrador, and Labradors are always motivated by food. So the offer of a treat won and he sat, only for a millisecond, but he did sit.
