[nagdu] Nfb centers and guide dogs

[Jennie Facer]

Hi Hope,

I am not going to say that the centers are very guide dog friendly, but they
will let you take them.  I think you have to alternate classes some with
your dog and some with your cane.  Yes you do need to take white cane
classes, because it never hurts to have your cane skills up to par just in
case there is a problem and you can't work your dog.

Hi all.  I have a friend who is attending an Nfb center.  He 
doesn't have a guide dog though.  I'm curious, how tollerant are 
the  centers about allowing students to bring their guide dogs to 
the centers and to classes? Also, if you're already 
well-traveled, (using a guide dog), is it required that you take 
white cane instruction?
I'm just curious.

Thanks!
Hope and Beignet
