[nagdu] guide dog and parents issue

[Jody Ianuzzi]

There is no way I would let my dog off leash even if there was a slight chance they might run into the road. 

Your parents have to realize your guide is not a pet but a highly trained service dog. They also have to realize that your dog is your responsibility not theirs.
