Hiram: moving out of the nest


We went to pick up Hiram on a sunny Sunday when the Guide Dogs association had their annual open day. Hiram and his brothers & sisters were part of the dog demonstrations where the trainers showed them off for their maximal cuteness value.



Of course we wondered which one of them we would get! Afterwards we headed over to the puppy pen.


And there was one lazy puppy sleeping whilst the others played around him.



Then there were two.



And then there were three.



The fourth to come was particularly pale and we thought this was our one because the trainers told us we had a light coloured one.



One of the six puppies had already gone to their home, so this is all five that were in the pen at the time.



This lazy puppy didn't even wake up for food!!


Time for a drink.



Training to sit.


All along we thought we had the super white one, but I secretly wanted the one that was sleeping the whole time. In the end when we were about to take our puppy home, the trainer came and picked out the sleepy one and he was ours after all! Hiram said goodbye to his brothers and sisters, and came home with us.
