[nagdu] How do any of you deal with small children wanting to touch your guide dog

[Lyn Gwizdak]

Don't feel bad.  If the parent is such a mental midget, well that's their 
problem. Just walk away.

I've been with a sighted friend and people have asker HER if they could pet 
my dog. She tells them to ask me! I'll say "no" because they didn't bother 
to be respectful of me ans directly ask ME. Oh wwell...

Hi everyone,
The other day this lady got mad at me for not letting her 4 year old touch 
my guide dog.  I kind of felt bad afterwards, do you think It was rong for 
me to tell her no?  I tried to be as polite as Possible.  Do any of you have 
any tips on what I should next time that happens again.
