Guide Dogs - National Breeding Centre

Royal Opening of the Guide Dogs National Breeding Centre

In the week which marks Guide Dogs Week and Guide Dogs 80th anniversary, HRH Princess Alexandra toured the National Breed Centre at Bishops Tachbrook and met with Guide Dogs staff and volunteers, as well as guide dogs, guide dog puppies and dogs in training.

This short film has been put together from a collection of footage recorded using hand held equipment and as such there is 'shakiness' in some parts.
