Please distribute widely.  The survey is open to all dog guide users -

                    ***Please forward to other guide dog handlers in
the United States and Canada***


                    Dear Fellow Guide Dog Handlers,
                    One of the biggest dangers we face as we travel
with our guide dogs is attacks or interference from aggressive dogs.
In an attempt to help increase awareness of this problem and the
importance of responsible dog ownership for the pet owning public, The
Seeing Eye has launched a survey across the U.S. and Canada that will
take an in-depth look at dog attacks and interference.

                    The survey is open to all guide dog handlers in
the United States and Canada and we will share our summary results
upon request. We're using an online service that we know to be user
friendly for screen readers, so we strongly encourage you to
participate and tell any other guide dog users you know about this
opportunity by forwarding this email or sharing the call-in number.

                    It's very important that we get responses from
people who have not encountered problems with other dogs as well as
those who have, no matter which school their dogs are from. The data
we collect from the survey will be essential in making our case with
law enforcement and animal control officers as well as with
legislators as we urge them to enact or strengthen laws to protect
guide dog teams. The survey will take between 5 to 20 minutes
depending on your answers. You may access the survey at the following
link: http://alturl.com/a5kcg.

                    For those of you who can't or don't want to take
the survey online, you can call The Seeing Eye's main number,
800-539-4425, and ask for extension 1520. You will be asked to leave
your name and phone number, and a volunteer will call you to conduct
the survey by telephone. The preferred method though is to take the
survey online, so I ask you to utilize that method if at all possible.

                    All those who respond by Friday, January 7, 2011,
will be entered in a raffle to win a $100 gift card.

                    Thank you all, in advance, for helping us to
better understand the scope of the issue  and to work toward a
solution to dog interference and dog attacks.


                    Sincerely,

                    Jim Kutsch
                    President & CEO
