This is such a well done and poignant video. Those of us who have had Seeing
Eye dogs really appreciate Lucas Franck's dedication and professional touch
in everything with which he is involved. Margo, was this on the Seeing Eye
list, or on their website? Anyway, thanks much for passing it along to us.

the following link has footage taken from The Seeing eye archives and shows
Morris Frank, the first person to use a guide dog in this country.  He and
Dorothy Harrison eustis founded the Seeing eye in 1929 and the guide dog
movement has moved forward since then and there are many guide dog schools
in this country, Canada, and throughout the world.  the person narrating the
video is Lukas Franck, a long-time instructor at the seeing Eye.  Lukas
trained my first two guide dogs--Deedee and Wayne.  Lukas also trained wayne
and me as a team in 1991.
