[nagdu] another what would you do question

[Julie J.]

Lyn,

Thanks!  I'm working on the transportation half of the issue, so I won't 
have to worry about the other dog in that confined space.  At least at 
the hotel I will have room to maneuver if the need arises.   I don't 
always know when there is another dog near me though, unless there is 
some noise of some variety.  It will be difficult for me to keep from 
encountering the other dog for the entire weekend.  I think Jenine and 
others are right, I need to suck it up and call the other guide dog 
handler to have a chat about this.

Julie
