[nagdu] Embarrassing Guide Dog Handlers

[Doug Parisian]

This unfortunate mindset is most unfortunate.  Damn right I'm Judgemental 
and I'm not sorry.  What silliness; we all make judgements every day, about 
people, dogs, food, etc.

If it were my dog consistently making trouble, messes, etc, damn right I'd 
take corrective action.

Doug: Barking up the right tree--in my judgement of course.
