 That's awesome! We went to Olivera Street too.  What dog did you
 have at that time?

   He's getting better because I corrcted him severely and he
  hasn't

   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

   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
