hi Rachel,
You didn't mention on Facebook that you would be getting a guide dog. Congratulations!
I hope that you told the school that you will be a college student? I'm sure that you did. I also did not know that you're at Princeton wow! I remember when you were still in school in MD. You're just right across the way from Pennsylvania. Very close to me.

If your puppy is anything like mine. He or she will be great at traveling on college campuses. My puppy very much likes temple university.
You're welcome to email me off list. Of course if you'd like to continue talking on Facebook we can do that too.
Again congratulations! I'm sure that you're fine all of the good information that you're looking for here.
Also by the way, if you need any help in regards to the list, don't hesitate to let me know. As I am the moderator of the list.
