[nagdu] Here's your dog!

That doesn't happen much at all, at least it hasn't to me.  It has only
happened once.  They will, however, give you the harness if it is off of
your dog even though you know where it is.

Subject: [nagdu] Here's your dog!


Sometimes when I'm at the counter at a store or cafe, I"ll deliberately 
drop my cane by my feet so I can fish into my backpack to get my wallet. 
And sometimes, like today, when I've finished my purchase and am putting 
everything away in my backpack, a staff member will come around to pick 
up my cane and hand it to me. Now, I knew exactly where my cane was. In 
fact, I could feel it by my foot! I was going to pick it up right after 
I put my wallet in my backpack. The staff member was either very eager 
to help, or worried that I wouldn't be able to find my cane.

Now I"m wondering, do any of you have similar experiences with dogs? Do 
people in the public say, "here's his harness!" when you already know 
exactly where your guide dog is located?
