[NAGDU] Seeing Eye repossession: was OFF NAGDU List ownership

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi all. Let me add that in my opinion it's not true ownership. It's more 
of so-called bragging rights. I read the Guiding Eyes for the Blind 
documentation and to me it seems that if the school retains the right to 
remove the dog from you, then it's not true ownership. I hope this makes 
sense.

If the graduate does not consent, it can't happen. If a person abuses a dog, the SPCA would need to be contacted, a visit to the home would be made and if a decision is made that there, indeed was abuse or neglect, the SPCA can remove the dog and returned ! that guide to The Seeing Eye.
