[nagdu] about insentives

An Eye Seeing Dog? Probably not. 
A seeing Eye Dog, perhaps. 
Why doesn't he call Seeing EYe and ask?  
I'll stress that him getting a dog is not something *you* can do. You
can be supportive in the sense that you can let him know you will be
okay with whatever choice he makes (if indeed you are okay with his
choice of mobility tool) and if he gets a dog, you can be supportive by
understanding that the dog is first and foremost a dog, and will do dog
stuff, usually when you really wish he/sheh and't. 
Other then this, getting a dog, or not getting a dog, *and* using or not
using said dog, is his choice alone.

Again, this is JMO.
