[NAGDU] International travel - hotels

[Becky Frankeberger]

Tracy, many handlers have been to Ireland from the Seeing Eye. They should
know whether hotels need to be contacted or not. Linda was just there like
last year or the year before with her black labby, if you want I can get you
two together to chat.

Subject: [NAGDU] International travel - hotels

I will be travelling to Ireland in a few weeks, and bringing my dog.  I'm
wondering if people who travel internationally contact the hotels they will
be staying at to tell them about the dog beforehand.  Ireland has its own
guide dog school, and the Irish people I've met are familiar with guide
dogs.  So I'm not sure if I need to tell them, or not.

I never do here, because I've found it just starts people imagining I'll
need a lot of help I don't need or want.  I never have, even before the ADA.
But I'm not sure what's done internationally.

Tracy
