[NAGDU] Guide dog schools

[Tracy Carcione]

Cindy's list of questions is a good one, but she left out one that's
important to me:  If you have problems, do you want the possibility of
someone coming out to help you, or is phone support good enough?

Andy, what do you want in a school? How much time can you spend there? Would
you want to have a home turn over, or do something that was a combination of
going there and returning? What is their ownership policy, and do you want
to own your dog outright or do you want it to be a rental? How far would you
want to travel to get the dog?
Once you have asked the question, you will get answerers based on people's
preferences as much as anything. I would say most of the schools have good
training programs, so you really do have to determine which style fits you.

Hi everyone,

 

I will start the process of applying for a guide dog soon. The only stopping
point now is which school to attend. Can owners give their experiences and
recommendations on what one to attend?

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

 

Andy Borka
