[nagdu] Introduction

[Kelby Carlson]

Thank you all very much for your introductions! I do have another 
question that's sort of random (and not really essential, just 
something I'm curious about.) My bedroom isn't terribly close to 
the kitchen, and I make a good deal of my own meals.  Is it 
better when I'm eating by myself to keep my dog on tie-down? It's 
more convenient for me in a logistical stense as I need two hands 
to do a lot of things and he doesn't seem to mind.  Thoughts?

Kelby

 Kelby, welcome to the list and congrats to you and Elvis.  You 
might try giving your dog ice to eat and staying in the shade.  I 
had a friend who actually had her golden retriever clipped.  The 
dog sure did feel strange, but she was a lot cooler.

 Hello, everybody!

 I am a newly graduated guide dog user from Guide Dogs for the 
Blind (Oregon Campus.) I have a beautiful yellow lab named Elvis, 
and I will be taking him back to college with me in several 
weeks.  I hope that this list will be a good place to discuss 
guide dog use, training, and care.

 I do have a question, and it may be a silly one.  Does any"one 
have suggestions about how to help a dog acclimate to a warmer 
climate? Oregon is significantly cooler than where I live in the 
summer and I don't want to overstress my dog.  The school gave me 
a set amount of water (3 cups) to offer Elvis at each watering.  
Is giving more water ever advisable in this situation? Thanks!
