[nagdu] New to the list, and considering a guide dog from CA school-question

[Laurel]

Debbie, if you don't mind me answering for Juanita, I can. GDB (Guide
dogs for the Blind) pays your way out there, transportation. They also
assist you with vet bills and money for the annual shots and stuff.
Hope that helps.
Laurel and Stockard
