Seeing Eye Puppies in<br />

Training<br />

On February 2, the Library<br />

hosted five dogs with their<br />

trainers from the Essex County<br />

Puppy Club, a chapter of the<br />

Seeing Eye Puppy Project. They<br />

presented their program to a full<br />

house of spectators.<br />

This club actively participates<br />

in raising puppies for the Seeing Eye, which involves<br />

organizing events and activities, outside of training, to<br />

further expose the pups to environments they will be<br />

expected to work as adult guide dogs. The club has<br />

more than fifty families raising dogs.
