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.

Going up

Harry has ridden in a lift on a number of occasions but we were amazed with his reaction to the one in the hotel while we were staying there. After we checked in, he set off purposefully across the lobby heading straight for the lifts, then sat patiently to wait.

When it arrived and the doors opened, he walked straight in, walked around in a circle so that he was facing the correct way and then sat down again. He was so comfortable with the experience that it looked as though he’d been travelling on it every day of his life.

In fact, we wouldn’t have been surprised if he’d pressed the button for our floor.
