[NAGDU] Do you have a cane whet walking with a guide dog?

[Aleeha Dudley]

I like using a cane to find an empty chair in a classroom. My dog is just a little too social to trust sometimes. She will sometimes place her head in someone’s lap, so I avoid that issue altogether with the cane. She has never gotten the concept of empty chair.
