Pick of the Litter

"Pick of the Litter is earnest and heartwarming, filled with adorable camera-licking and tight closeups of beseeching doggy eyes.” Moira Macdonald, Seattle Times.

Meet Patriot, Potomac, Primrose, Poppet, and Phil—five spirited puppies who, from the moment they're born, begin an incredible journey to become guide dogs for the blind. It's a rigorous two-year process that will take the pups from the care of selfless foster volunteers to specialized trainers to, if they make the cut, a lifelong human companion.
