[nagdu] New member saying hello

[Linda Gwizdak]

Welcome,Adrijana,
Where is Macedonia?  Are there any people with guide dogs there? The Seeing 
Eye has taken people from other countries but mainly North America - US and 
Canada. Other US schools are open to international students.

I'm a 59 year young person who has used guide dogs since 1973 and I'm on my 
8th dog. He is a 4 year old Lab/Golden cross named Landon.  I got him two 
years ago from The Seeing Eye.  We make our home here in San Diego, 
California.

As you read the posts on this list, you'll see that there are others who 
don't have dogs.  You just have to be a supporter of guide dog use. Many are 
seeking information to help them decide if a dog is right for them or not. 
We're a lively bunch here and we represent everyone from deciding on a first 
dog up to those of us who have used dogs for years and years!

Happy Holidays.

Linda (starting to go by the name of Lyn now)and Landon

Hello,

I am a new member to this list, so thought to write and say hello. My
name is Adrijana and I am a 30-year old blind lady from Macedonia.
Unfortunatelly, I do not have my own guide dog, because there are no
such training centers in my country, but I would be happy to own one
one day, if an opportunity presents itself to me. I would wellcome any
information about organizations that may provide this service to
people from other countries like my own. I would also be happy to gain
some more friends, so if you wish to write me on the list or
privately, feel free to do so.

Happy holidays,

Adrijana
