*Hello Tracy,
I do, kind of have a problem with both pats of your friend's dilemma.
I'll take them in reverse order. Yes, a Guide Dog school should make 
well sure that their vendor's site is accessible to their potential 
clientele, the blind. that's plain ridiculous.
Did your friend have to fork over the fee for this criminal background 
check? Also, this, I feel, is an intrusion to the privacy of potential 
Guide Dog Owners/Handlers. it seems an overly patronizing and 
paternalistic practice.
That's my $.02 worth.
