[nagdu] Victim or Advocate?

[Doug Parisian]

Lyn, I used to allow my dog the run of the place when I ran a business for 
13 years.  All my dogs new to either return to my office, or go to the 
receptionist's station when folks came in.  There were only two of us in the 
office and all my dogs knew the chain of command--the pecking order, me, 
receptionist, and dog though the latter were reversible.  Most customers, if 
they learned I had a dog guide, would ask to see him/her and as long as all 
behaviours were unobtrusive, I would allow it.

Doug: Just another happy tail!
