[nagdu] Woman with guide dog says civil rights were violated

[Marsha]

I don't think the issue here is what school we get our dogs from, plain and
simple Seeing Eye dogs, Leader Dogs, guide Dogs, Service Dogs, they are
guide dogs/assistant dogs. This is more of a legal issue, not a issue of
what you call your dog. It is more of a issue of what the dog  does, not
what school it is from.

Interesting story. What part of the comments of Texas Hearing and Service
Dogs did you disagree with or bothered you, Wayne? Just curious. I
personally didn't see anything incorrect in what was said. The only thing
that jumped out and it could very well be a result of editing, was that this
handler seemed to be presumed guilty of some wrong even though what she was
saying lead me to believe she was not. 

I know there's a really strong desire to correct, out of school pride or
whatever, people who call every guide dog a Seeing eye dog, but sometimes
you have to temper that one. 

Then again, some people are on their best behavior on camera too. 

It will be interesting to see how this one plays out.
