[blparent] children and trust

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Look in the pet section at Wal-Mart or wherever.  Retractable leashes are 
made for dogs, but what I did to keep the leash asthetically pleasing for 
the sighted world is to clip the end of the retractable leash that would go 
on the dog's collar to the loop on the bottom of the animal backpack where 
the soft leash is connected.  I hope that makes sense.

compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of 
the weak and the strong.  Because someday in life you will have been all of 
these."--George Washington Carver, 1864-1943, American scientist
