When Jean first got Enton at six weeks old, neither of them could go far from home as Enton had to be fed four times a day. Enton also had to be introduced to new sights and sounds and experiences very gradually. Now at seven months old they can go further afield.

7-9am
Jean gets up, dressed and eats breakfast. At 8am she gives Enton the first of his two meals of the day, then gets on with her household chores while his food is digesting.

9-9.30am
Jean and Enton get ready to go out on one of the day's outings. Sometimes they have appointments or perhaps a school has invited them to meet the children. It gives Enton a chance to mix with youngsters and for Jean to answer questions on puppy walking.

They go to the Guide Dog Headquarters in Headingley each month for a puppy class. Not only does this keep the dogs on track with their training, but there is also opportunity for walkers to meet and to talk over any problems with the puppy walking supervisor, Tracey Leigh.

If there is nothing in the diary Jean will take Enton to the local shops. She has to allow extra time for shopping as so many people want to meet and greet Enton.

Jean says: "One of the many delights of puppy walking is getting the chance to talk to so many people who say such nice things about guide dogs and the great job they do."

10-11am
Jean and Enton usually stop off at a cafe-bar in Guiseley. She might arrange to meet another puppy walker for coffee, otherwise she reads the newspaper while Enton settles himself under the table.

It is important that guide dog puppies get used to public transport so Jean takes Enton to Leeds on the train. They walk around the department stores and shopping precincts to get him used to moving through crowds without being fazed.

12.30-1.30pm
Jean and Enton will find somewhere for lunch. Enton wears a distinctive blue and yellow tabard when he is on duty, and most shops and restaurants allow him inside.

2-3pm
Jean and Enton will get the return train journey at some point in the afternoon and go home. Jean likes to groom Enton when he is feeling relaxed. Retrievers have long coats and need grooming daily.

4-5.30pm
The rest of the afternoon is usually spent in the park. Jean lets Enton off the lead so he can have a good chase round.

Although this is playtime for Enton it's also part of the training. Jean will practice his retrieving skills with a toy and work on recall. A dog that won't come back when called makes it very difficult for a sight-impaired owner.

Sometimes when the weather is bad they have play sesions at home. These are an important part of the mental stimulation process for puppies and also help in the bonding process with their walkers.

6-10pm
Jean has her evening meal and then Enton has his, they relax together watching TV for a while. Later in the evening they will go out for a short walk. Guide dog puppies have to learn to go out in the dark and in all weathers.

Occasionally they might go to an event, such as a concert or join friends for a meal or a drink.

11pm
Jean lets Enton out into the garden to relieve himself before they settle down for the night. She told us: "Enton can find a number of distractions, like a passing snail or a wafting leaf so I could be outside for some time!"
