> Heya all!
>
> I've decided to start my very own, brand spankin' new guide dog program! 
> Of course it will be totally state of the art.  The very latest in 
> offering blind people all the rights and privileges they so want.
>
> All training will happen in your home environment.  We will drop off the 
> dog to you on Monday morning with a booklet describing the use and care of

> the dog.  since you are very skilled in blindness alternatives, this 
> shouldn't be a problem.  this is for your convenience.  should you have 
> questions please call the number in the booklet and leave a message. 
> Someone will call you back when we feel like it.
>
> The trainer will not disturb your normal routine during the home training 
> process.   You will be free to take the dog wherever you like as soon as 
> you like, immediately after signing all the release of liability forms. 
> If you or the dog experience a mental health crisis please seek the 
> services of a professional.
>
> None of the dogs will be given health testing or hip X-rays.  You, being a

> competent blind person, will be able to administer any complicated medical

> interventions the dog may need.  Please see Appendix A in the booklet for 
> troubleshooting tips.
>
> In line with our forward philosophy on blindness, we firmly believe that 
> all blind people, regardless of their background, experience, available 
> time or inclination can be competent dog trainers.  We therefore will 
> provide only the barest minimum of training.  Should you experience 
> difficulty, please see Appendix B of the booklet for suggestions.
>
> We do not want to be viewed as a charity for the blind because this would 
> be demeaning to blind people.  We therefore charge $75,000 for each dog. 
> We are sorry that refunds or guarantees are not available.  The purchase 
> price must be paid in full before delivery of the dog.
>
> In keeping with our hands off approach to the training experience, your 
> privacy and independence, we will not be offering any follow up services. 
> After dropping off the dog to your home, you will never again hear from 
> any of our staff.
>
> Sincerely,
> The C.R.A.P. Guide Dog School
