[nagdu] My turn to go to school

[Star Gazer]

Get a storage container for food. I had a neat one, that I think I got at
Walmart that was shaped like a dog house. Get poop bags, I liked the Mutt
Mitt brand. Tracey is right about the shoes.

Hi Jewel.
Congratulations!  My best advice of what to do before class is to be sure
you have good walking shoes, and that they're well broken-in.  And do as
much walking as you can, so you're in shape for class.  I've seen classmates
come in who didn't have the right shoes, or who weren't used to walking more
than a few blocks, and it made their experience more difficult.
Tracy
