[NAGDU] Where to purchase Raincoats and booties was RE: Guide dog accessories

[Stacie Hardy - NFBHOU]

Hello all,

I'd recommend checking out Rough Ware. I might be spelling their name 
wrong, so please forgive me. However, they have many wonderful things. 
They also offer guide and service dog handlers a discount. Good luck.
