[nagdu] Montana womens run walk

[Darla Rogers]

Good job, Dar; as long as you and the boy are noticed, people are learning
about guy dogs and the capabilities of blind people, so you should be proud,
and I wouldn't be surprised to see the Lions help with your Chapter efforts
once they get to know more of you.

Subject: [nagdu] Montana womens run walk

A week ago, my boy and I did a Montana women's run walk.
I did the walk part, running like a turtle, the turtle would win smile.
this was a two mile walk.
There were [police dogs there, as well as pets plus they say service dogs.
I was asked when I got my t shirt if my dog was coming with me.
I said yes, the team likes to get into trouble together.
There were 10,000 ladies in this walk.
Mom's pushing baby strollers, friends and dads pushing wheel chairs.
the walk was a steady walk that was nice.
Crossed train tracks twice.
At one time my dog thought he would go visiting, when my friend got in front
of me where I fell hard on my rite knee.
the folks stopped helping me up and we started again.
I knew when I learned about all of the other dogs there, mine was doing just
fine.
He wagged all the way threw the walking.
Now at the end someone decided it was ok to have his dog sniff mine.
I turned saying "knock it off.
The person didn't know if I was talking to them or the dog, they pulled
their dog back rite away.
yes my dog turned to sniff.
He was wearing the canny collar all of the way.
I didn't want him to walk faster than I could.
This was done in the street.
they do this every year before mothers day.
I don't know what they sponsered this year, where each year they sponser an
organization.
What I loved was folks were quite surprised to see me there who knew me.
I was told my dog was well behaved, this pleased me very much.
I also on Tuesday will go to Perkins for dinner, then in July now that I
have a ride I hope I can join the Lions.
Something I have wanted to do for many years.
I just would like to be noticed in the city with my dog.
He truly is a beautiful dog.
Now they raise money for leader and that I will accept.
They don't want to devide money for seeing eye, that would please me.
I just don't have time to fight for that.
Where if they want to give money towards our nfb chapter here in town, I
would accept that.
Just wanted to share what we are doing here in town.
I also work with ladies of charity.
My boy gets out allot.
