Hi Marsha!  Thanks!  I might write you off list sometime, if you don't mind,
to inquire about using a dog with multiple disabilities.  My husband has
some mobility issues in addition to being blind; and I've wondered how a dog
might help him with balance and such.

Hi Tonia, 

welcome to our list! I'm Marsha, inbetween guides at the moment. I retired
Emma,a 6 1/2 year old GSD from TSE due to health and stress issues. I will
be getting a new pup from GDF in 3weeks. I changed schools, for no other
reason but I have additional disabilities that have forced me to get a dog
who was better trained for that work. TSE is great! We, including my hubby
live in PA, where I attend Temple University full time. 

I am also the moderator of the list, so if you need anythinng, please let me
know. 

Until next time,
