As a Seeing-Eye dog, Puppy Sirius will be expected to go to a
variety of public places. Knowing this, the Eyes of Hope
Puppy Club visited the South Plainfield Public Library on
November 3, 2002 where they put on a demonistration of how they
are learning to work as future Seeing Eye K-9s. Demostrations
help raise public awareness about the use of dog guides in the
community and also promotes the Seeing Eye's Puppy Project.
