[NAGDU] Guide dog and pet dog

Sun Apr 10 18:08:56 UTC 2016

I have Onyx. She is not usually allowed on furniture although I let
her on my bed during the day. She sleeps in her crate at night.
The schools do not encourage letting dogs on furniture and Onyx knows
that she is not allowed up on my bed unless I say she is.
