[nagdu] having many dogs

[Steven Johnson]

That is a type of Spaniel.  Great dogs, a little hyperactive when younger,
but wonderful pups!

Marilyn,

My parent's dogs are sweet and they have gone through obedience class.
The Brittany actually used to be my dog, so I trained her.  However, my
parents rules concerning the dogs in the house are pretty laid back.
It's their house and their rules.  I totally respect that.

Yes, maybe my guide and their dogs would get along well.  Perhaps
someday I will take him.  I don't know.  At this time my parents do not
wish to have more dogs in their home.  It's nothing against me or my
dog.  It's just their home and their wishes.

Similarly I do not take my guide dog into people's personal vehicles or
homes without being specifically invited.  That's their private space.
I wouldn't smoke cigarettes there or spray a bunch of perfume or
rearrange their furniture.  To me it's simply honoring their space.  I
am fine with people bringing their dog into my home as long as I know
beforehand and the dog gets along well with others.  Others may not care
at all, that's their choice in their home.

This is just the way I do things.  I realize it's different from the way
many others manage things.  That's okay.
Julie
