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.

Stir Crazy

Harry is going stir crazy confined as he is to short lead walks, all he really wants to do is go for a good long romp in the fields, have a really good sniff around and maybe eat a blade of grass or two.

We took him to a coffee shop this morning to try and alleviate his boredom and he was so happy just to lie there and watch. Every time someone new came in they were scrutinised, then if he liked the look of them, they were treated to a furious wag of his tail. Harry could spend hours under any table, in any coffee shop, just people watching.

When we got home he lay in his bed and stared at us, willing us to take him out again. He was all, I’m going crazy with this new routine! Why can’t we go out again? Why can’t I go running in the woods. Why? Why? Why?
