[nagdu] Working third shift

The thing is, guide dogs are trained to guide, not to guard you. In my opinion, having a dog to keep you company while at work doesn't seem like the best use of a guide dog.

Third shift I would be the only person in the building a big building, when he ask me I almost said I would do it if I could have a dog to be with me.  So I was wondering I am legally blind with good sight.  I want the dog to help me keep watch for people that shouldn't be there, and yes the dog would keep my company.
