>>>>> 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

>>>>> If you or the dog experience a mental health crisis please seek the

>>>>>
>>>>> None of the dogs will be given health testing or hip X-rays.  You,

>>>>>
>>>>> We do not want to be viewed as a charity for the blind because this

>>>
>>>>> be demeaning to blind people.  We therefore charge $75,000 for each

>>>>> We are sorry that refunds or guarantees are not available.  The

>>>>> In keeping with our hands off approach to the training experience,
