[nagdu] special Needs Program at Guiding Eyes

Sun Mar 2 04:44:58 UTC 2014

Traffic was one of my major problems at GDA; it became an issue later as my
hearing degraded further. It was part of my motivation for leaving the
Oakland area. Fortunately GDA instructors were able to come out and identify
that at least half of the problems I was having could be traced back to my
hearing loss, and we corrected accordingly.

Karl and Tucker, legal eaglets

Well, Guiding Eyes will evluate whether or not you should be placed in the
regular program or Special Needs program. How well do you hear traffic? If
you have trouble they will give your dog more traffic training.
