[nagdu] {Disarmed} Fwd: [GuideDogs] Dogs in Europe

[Star Gazer]

Ed, 
Just tell Seeing Eye you have no other options. 
You deserve a trip like this, and given your age, this may be one of the
last times you can do it. 
This is one reason I'm glad I don't have a dog. 
Go and enjoy yourself.

This reminds me. I am planning to go to Britain, Ireland, austria,
Lithuania, and Iceland in August. I was worried about meeting all the
various regulations, and have pretty well decided to board my dog and use a
cane while travelling. If I change my mind, I only have a few weeks to start
the complex blood tests needed. When I wrote Seeing Eye asking whether they
would hold Gyro for me, they said reluctantly they would if I could find no
other option. I have to look into professional boarding kennels.

The lady at Seeing Eye sent me contact info for a person who had been to
Austria and Lithuania, to get details about his experiences, but he did not
reply.

Any comments would be appreciated.
