[NAGDU] Gentle Leader

[d m gina]

Here I thought you were going to say you sell them. Making something on 
your own.
You are so tallented it is unreal.
I just love it.
When I used the canney collar wich I love the best with the leash 
hanging down their back I was told she couldn't see out of her rite eye.
I took several gentle leaders with me to the school just encase she 
decided it was a good thing to chew it once again as she did when I was 
getting her from the school the first time.
She will still sniff persons when she can, where for the most part she 
works well, knowing that this is her job to do that.
Now we are walking on ice and snow, she is doing quite well keeping a 
slow pace.
I give her credit for that.

> Hello, All:

> I have a question about gentle leaders.  This last weekend, at
> our NFB state convention, I used my gentle leader with Demi while
> we were in the hotel because I knew that she would be very
> excited about all the guide dogs.  She kept trying to rub the
> thing off, which is not unusual, but then when I decided that she
> was calm enough and took it off of her, she still kept trying to
> rub her face on me for awhile.  She did the same thing the next
> time we used the GL, acting as if her muzzle was itching or sore
> because of the GL.

> I got my GL from The Seeing Eye.  It is actually my second
> because I lost the first one they gave me and had to replace it.
> The first GL had padding around the muzzle, but this one does
> not; when I asked about this, I was told that they don't make
> this particular brand with padding anymore because the padding
> seemed to be irritating the dogs.  Demi definitely seems more
> bothered by this GL than she did with the last one, however.  I
> know that the problem isn't the tightness because I have tried
> loosening it with the same result, and it wasn't ridiculously
> tight to begin with.

> Does anyone have suggestions on other gentle leaders which might
> work better? I don't think I want to use this one anymore.

> Thank you, and all best!
