A young German Shepherd wearing a navy blue vest with white Hebrew writing sits on a wooden floor, looking up with alert ears.

Last week, I had my first adventure in Central Park! Now that I’ve got all my puppy vaccines, I’m ready to explore the city. The park was a blast—so many new sights and smells to discover. I must have met a hundred dogs and a bunch of really friendly people.

Another big milestone that happened is I got to wear my Guide-Puppy-in-Training vest for the first time out and about! How does it look? I think I look good in blue. You can see in the picture me in my stylish new vest at Belvedere Castle.

All this excitement is absolutely exhausting! I had a nice long nap after my busy day.
