Directed by Dana Nachman and Don Hardy, Pick of the Litter is a documentary that focuses on a litter of puppies from their birth as they begin their destiny to develop into guide dogs for the blind.
Dana Nachman also wrote the screenplay for this documentary as cameras trail along with these puppies as they go through a profound two-year journey. They train to grow into dogs whose greatest responsibility is to protect their blind companions from harm.
Progressing along, these extraordinary canines place their obedience on a community of committed people. They train the puppies to do amazing, life-changing accomplishments in the service of their human.
Not every dog makes the grade and becomes a guide dog. Though, they try their best and can only hope they are the pick of the litter.
