You should never have to release your dog when going through security. Also, I think they are to tell you each thing they plan to do. But Marion knows more about this than I do.

If so, that should have automatically alerted everyone that you were blind!  Of more concern to me is that when you had to go through again who and for how long had and kept the dog?  I don't think those folks are trained to use or control dogs.  Maybe the bomb or drug sniffing team would know something about that but to call them in to baby sit a dog!  The point is that dogs read the emotions coming off from us and can get quite nervous about being separated from us.  I would like to see every airport have a braille, large print, tape or oral explanation of everything that could happen while going through security.  They would have to redo the thing almost weekly because it seems like things change that often but it would surely help.
