No he doesn't see my mother as an instructor, but when he ses the 
trainers it's almost as if I'm not there.

Hi there,
What did the instructor say?
Just know the first year with a new dog can be a trip.
It takes lots of patients.
I am pleased that the school is close.
When he drags you, can you make him sit
Is he treating your mother as an instructor as well?
Wishing you the best.
Just be sure you keep up with the obedience.

 With Wizard, he drags me out the gate to get to Emily and will
 not listen to me very good when they're around, and it makes me
 feel more discouraged every time they come over.  Then if they
 get a few feet behind us, he won't go.  They wanted to stay a 
few
 blocks behind us but Wizard wouldn't hop up and I don't know how
 to fix it.

 Motley only wagged his tail at the trainer once when she came
 over with some
 scissors to cut the hair around his eyes.

 We were told to keep the dogs under control.

 It wasn't easy at the beginning, but we did it somehow.

 Hello everyone,
 When you first got your dogs, did your dogs go nuts when they 
saw
 the trainers? What did you do? Did you let them go nuts and say
 hi to the trainers or get them under control?

 Hi all,

 When I first came home from Pilot with Motley, the trainer and 
my
 mobility
 instructor worked on my area with Motley and I.

 My mobility instructor seemed to be familiar with guide dogs
 because she and
 the trainer go way back.

 Anyhow, she was able to help Motley and I along with routes here
 in my
 neighborhood, and it's worked out great!

 All my best,

 Chantel and Motley

 I know that lots of these folks don't know much about dog use,
 but as they
 show us a route, can't we tell them what we need? That's how 
I've
 dealt with
 any here.

  We have an O and M instructor in this area who's very familiar
 with how
 guide dog teams work.  I hear she's leaving, though.  I think 
one
 or two of
 the O and M instructors at our private blindness agency know
 about dogs,
 too, but, yes, those are few and far between.  I know some of 
the
 schools
 offer O and M people the opportunity to work with a dog, etc.,
 but I wonder
 how much they get to learn in the space of a couple of days.  In
 other
 words, do they learn enough to be able to help someone learn a
 route or to
 know what the dog is or isn't dong or the owner is or isn't
 doing.
