[nagdu] Guide dogs in other countries

[Tracy Carcione]

I think the biggest difference between the US and other countries, where 
guide dogs are concerned, is that we have several different schools, and, 
from what I've heard, other countries have one school, sometimes with 
several branches, but still managed by one organization.
So, here, if you are dissatisfied with some aspect of a program, you can go 
to a different program. People in other countries don't seem to have as much 
choice.
I heard, because of this, that there were quite a few owner-trainers in the 
UK, because it's the only option for people who aren't happy with the guide 
dog program.  I heard that a long time ago, so it may no longer be true.
