 Good, Sarah.  Glad you are discussing the growling wiht the
 instructors.  That shows that you are concerned about a behavior
 that you don't want to get out of hand.

 Hello Sarah-
 I am happy that you are enjoying your new dog.  As for the
 growling, could it
 be that the dog was being territorial because  he didn't
 recognize the
 people who were  coming in to what he considers to be his house
 and not
 growling specifically at your mom and uncle? Some dogs do tend 
to
 growl and
 bark when they see a person who they don't recognize come in to
 what has
 been their home for many months and it has nothing to do with
 protecting a
 specific person.  I hope that you shared this behavior with your
 trainers
 because it needs to be dealt with before you go home with your
 dog.  Also,
 you have expressed interest in wanting to become a Braille
 teacher and
 working at JBA in Los Angeles.  JBA is a blind adjustment 
program
 where some
 of the students and staff have guide dogs as well as there is
 also a program
 for children who have severe to profound disabilities on the 
same
 campus.
 Therefore your dog has to be under control.  I am not trying to
 be mean or
 chastise you, I'm being very honest  with you on this issue with
 your dog.  I
 want you to be successful with your new partnership and if your
 dog is
 growling at people you won't be.  So please, please discuss this
 issue with
 your instructors and allow them to assist you with correcting
 this behavior.

 Good luck.
 Tina

 He growled at my uncle and my mom when they came too close to 
me.

 He's a black Labrador named Wizzard! We are already bonding and
 he's
 already tried protecting me from people twice! He is an amazing
 guide and
 very cautious.  I don't think Jenny Baker likes me very much but
 I dont know
 why she has a problem with me.  I like Ty-Ann a bot she is so
 cool!

 I believe Tuesday you were matched with your lovely dog.  I
 won't say  what
 the breed is but i did see pictures on Facebook of all the
 students  and
 the moment they were introduced to their beloeved  workers.  I
 know 2 of the
 students that are in class with you.
 Everyone seemed so ahppy about their match.  How is it going?
 Tell us
 about your dog.

 Best wishes to you
