Guide dog puppies in training work with their trainers from left, Sue Caplan, with Divine, 13 months; Bobbi Rakita, with Wyclef, 7 months; Sue Mooney, with Kyra, 7 months; and Nancy Peake, with Reggie, 8 months, on Thursday as the canines learn the smells, sights and sounds of the airport. The puppies will eventually leave their Durango home about the age of 14 months and go for further training at a Guide Dogs for the Blind facility in Oregon.
