[nagdu] You never know

[Tamara Smith-Kinney]

Well, I tend to think that the best PR we do, and the best public relations
for our dogs is to go out and use them well in our daily lives.

The bigger work of NAGDU collectively and of the NFB is important, too.  But
it's us everyday guide dog users that people see and remember.  /smile/

I am listening to Rosalind Carter talk about her efforts to improve mental
health services.  She was inspired to try to do something because some
unknown woman handed her a brochure somewhere.  The woman probably has no
idea that she'd made a difference.  It made me think that we in the NFB
and NAGDU might never know if some little thing we've done made a
difference.
Like, people on the crosstown bus this morning were admiring how quiet Ben
was lying under the seat, and how they'd never know he was there if they
hadn't seen him go under.  Happens all the time.  But maybe one of those
people will speak up, if they see someone being denied access, remembering
how well-behaved that guide dog they saw was. You never know.
Anyway, just a thought.
Tracy
