Meet the gorgeous and talented Forrest!
We have been learning about guide dogs this week, and today we were super lucky to have met Forrest, a beautiful wee guide dog puppy.
Forrest is a black labrador, and is only 12 weeks old! He lives with a lovely family who are looking after him until he is old enough to become a working guide dog.
We learnt that Forrest has three brothers, and all of their names begin with F!
Forrest can do two tricks already and has even been for a visit to the local Mall!
We learnt that when guide dogs are working they wear their jacket.
We also learnt that we must always ask the owner if we can pat the dog first; and that if we are near an excited dog we don't know then we should pretend to be a tree so that it ignores us!
