It is a new documentary release titled 'Pick of the Litter' (2019, G).
Meet Patriot, Potomac, Primrose, Poppet and Phil, five determined puppies who, from the moment they are born, begin an incredible journey to become Guide Dogs for the vision impaired. It's a rigorous two-year process that will take them from the care of selfless foster volunteers to specialised trainers to, if they make the cut, a lifelong human companion.

At every step of the way, the puppies will be tested, challenged and evaluated.
But not just any dog makes it all the way to graduation, and only the best will make the cut. Who has what it takes to be the pick of the litter?
This event is a fundraiser for Guide Dogs Australia
Meet special guest presenter Christie McGrath. There may even be a Guide Dog at the session. It will screen on Sunday, May 26 at 2pm at the Society's Main Street theatre.
