Puppy Sirius, and other Seeing Eye pups from all over New Jersey, toured the Newark-Liberty International Airport on Saturday, March 29, 2003.  The tour was designed to expose the pups to the unique environment of a busy airport. The pups adventure started at the Port Authority Police Headquarters at the airport, where they boarded busses for the trip to the terminal.
Waiting for the busses to arrive    (Notice the name of the street Huczko Way.  It was    named for Stephen C. Huczko, Port Authority Police    Officer, who died in the collapse of the WTC on    9/11/01, while helping to resuce others.) Boarding the busses	Pups and Puppy Raisers on the bus

After touring the airport, boarding a US Airways plane and the luggage pick-up area at the airport, the Puppy Raisers were treated to a demonstration by the PAPD K-9 Unit and a tour of the Emergency Services Unit, where everyone got a little shower when the wind blew the spray from the fire truck back into the crowd.
