[NAGDU] FW: [Njagdu] Blind Man With Guide Dog Denied Uber Ride, Stands Up For Rights

[Tracy Carcione]

Krokus is groomed every day, and really sheds very little, but I've had
drivers complain about his fur.  I suspect that the floor of the taxi is a
dark color, and Krokus's fur is light, so it shows up.  Though, like I said,
there's not much of it, so what's the beef?  Aannnh, next excuse.

I would disagree with your mentioning keeping the dogs groomed and so on, I
don't mean that I think we shouldn't groom our dogs--smile, I mean that if
ssomeone wants to deny us rights that are sanctioned by law, it's not really
up to us to proove how well-groomed our dogs are and so on...And like it or
not, our dogs will shed--smile.

Yours,
Dan

It seems certain areas have more issues; I don't know of anyone in the
Kansas City area being denied a Uber ride, though someone was charged for
detailing a Uber card due to hair.

I guess the best we can do is continue to advocate for our rights; keep our
dogs on the floor and keep them sell-groomed to cut down on the amount of
hair.
