[nagdu] ABC 4 viewers pay for guide dog's surgery

[cheryl echevarria]

This is wonderful, that the community is coming together to help.

I do have a question thought just a question.

So if my dog was attacked, and Maxx is from GDF, and I couldn't afford the 
surgery, I was told should I need assistance with medical issues with him, 
that GDF would help.

Now I don't know if this person is part of NAGDU, etc. but shouldn't the 
owner get in touch with the school that Zoren got Buffy from and say I need 
some assistance.

Did the originally mention the school, or if the school stepped up. Jenine 
Stanley is on the list, maybe if she available can give what I am saying any 
back up.

As well as the other schools represented on the list, we always here from 
NAGDU members, but can any of the schools listening in give a response here 
thank you.
