[Flagdu] Getting a Guide Dog Soon!

[Kathy Davis]

Hi Helga,
	This is Kathy Davis from Ormond Beach FL. One of the requirements
for obtaining a guide dog is that you must be able to have the financial
ability to care for him/her. This includes food, veterinary care and the
like. I do have insurance on my black Lab but I pay for it. I don't know of
any organization that covers these sorts of expenses. 

Best of luck to you,

Kathy

Hi everyone! How are you all? I'm getting a guide dog soon! I did not apply
yet, but i'm going to apply this weekend to the school or next week! But
first I wanted to ask you all some questions. I'm concerned about some
things. I know that wen you have a guide dog you have to be very responsible
and be able to take good care of him or her, and you guys really inspire me
a lot! My OM instructor told me that I'm ready in order to get a guide dog,
but my concerns and also my family are vet expenses and be able to provide
for the dog! I currently lieve on an appartment, and I go to school and I
don't work yet, but i do have SSI. However, my family and i have money to
sustain ourselves, but I'm not so sure that I'm going to be able to sustain
the dog so well. You know vet expenses and food, toys, and many other
things! Do you know if there is a dog insurance or some kind of program that
can help me with all these matters untill I get good finantial income? I'm
just owndering since I really want to ahve a dog, and I'm ready for it! And
I'm going to apply to Southeastern Guide Dog school! I will really
appreciate it a lot if you can help me with these matters! Hope to hear form
you soon. Thanks os much and God bless!
