[nagdu] How does your dog help you?

[Kerri Stovall]

Amen to that. I agree with Debbie completely. If you're more comfortable with a cane that's great. But if you're like me, you have a preference.

And now, with GPS, I can walk not necessarily knowing where I'm going, just walk for the pleasure of the movement, Neena guiding me and being my companion, and then I can come back home, feeling tired in that good way that you feel after doing something fun.  So I thank God for my Neena, even when she does things that annoy me.  (Smile).  What she offers me is freedom in a way I never have felt with a cane.  For those who do feel that freedom using a cane, great! Go for it.  But please don't put those of us who don't feel that freedom, down.  We have a right to our choice as much as you do.  (And I know I'm preaching to the choir on this list, but I really really hate the snide remarks some ardent cane users have spouted at me and others who choose to travel with dogs instead of canes.    Peace,    Debby and Neena
