				Not necessarily John. Dogs have their uses and can be great but it's not a given that your independence will increase, nor it is a given that you'll want or need that method of mobility aid.

Hi,
The reason why I'm wanting a dog is because my independence can be increased.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Sanders

Also John, is it that you have nowhere to go, or that you just go using 
sighted assistance? The distinction matters and the latter option is fine in 
my book.
Finally, why do you want a dog? I ask this with all respect, what will a dog 
bring you and do you need/want it?

Hi John.
Can you get into Lansing, and work there?
I don't want to be negative, but, if you have nowhere to go, what are you 
hoping to get from a dog?
Tracy

Hi,
I did find there program helpful.
The only issue I have is that; I'm not able to come up with three routes 
that I can perform as one of there requirements.
Because of the area I live in.
There is not a lot to do out where I live.
I live in Okemos Michigan.
It's a suberb of Lansing Michigan.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Sanders

Good for you, John!  Did you find Leaders' mobility program helpful?
I know you had problems with the young dog you had before.  I wish you all 
success with this next attempt.
Tracy

Hi my name is John Sanders.
I just wanted to let you know that  I have completed the training program
for Mobility at Leader dog.
I’m now in the process of being admitted.
A Mobility Specialist is supposed to be stopping out to my home to do a
video of me doing a full route.
The only thing is the weather.
It’s not going to be very nice today.
It’s supposed to be raining and thunder storming outside here in Michigan.
I hope I can be addmitted in to leader dog for getting a guide dog.
I didn’t have to go through the application process.
Because the school said that they would transfer my information over from
the accelerated Mobility application that I had filled out.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Sanders
