[Blindtlk] Guide Dogs

[Mike Freeman]

Wouldn't you think this inquiry would better be sent to the NAGDU list?

Also, asking for opinions on guide dog schools is one of those questions
like which Braille display is "best" that will garner as many answers as
there are answerers. It kind of depends upon your expectations for a guide
dog school.

Caveat: I am a cane user.

Hello,

I'm wondering who on this list has guide dogs? I'm currently applying for
one through Guide Dogs for the Blind, and am curious how difficult it is
generally to get into one of these schools. How good does your mobility need
to be? I have always been told I have good mobility, but today I got lost
coming home from somewhere and it discouraged me a bit.

Also which do you think is the best school? I've heard a lot of good things
about Guide Dogs for the Blind so decided to apply there.

Thanks,
Brandon
