[nagdu] some questions

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

If you are a woman, tampons. Seriously pack some since its harder to get to a store then you'd think and you probably don't want to ask a trainer to pick some up for you, especially a guy.
You're at training for a long time and it's something people don't tell women though maybe it should be obvious.
Toothbrush, shampoo, razor, tissues, stuff like that. Basically all the personal care items you'll need to last youa month.
You will want access to spending money but credit cards are good here.
I wouldn't worry about the dog, the school will give you the standard issue package of stuff.

I never take anything for my guide because the dogs each have their personalities, and they give a few things at TSE. I might buy it something when we go to the pet store later on.

I have never stopped feeding what the school uses.

I just pack and hope for the best, so don't follow me if you are in the least organized. LOL.
But be sure you have a waterproof outer garment to wear, and good water shoes might be good. Where are you going to get your dog?

I guess those are the only questions I can half way answer.
