My concern is that the media will follow this dog so much that his poor
owner will have no break. I think it's great that we're trying to educate
the public about guide dogs, but, on the other hand, I feel really bad for
the new owner.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

that guide dogs do?  Or will - if Wrangler completes training successfully -
he be viewed as a cute fluffball of a pet who maybe has some extra training?
