[NAGDU] Question about Breeds

[Charlene Ota]

For whatever it's worth, in all the times I've been through guide dog
training, the trainers seem to do a pretty good job of matching people with
dogs so I would go with an open mind even though you might ask for one breed
or another. I think it's more important to have a dog that suits you and
your lifestyle than a dog of a particular breed. Let the school know as much
about you as you can and about your lifestyle and your needs and any issues
you may deal with.

Yeah. I think that leader does. I know all about labs being eaters, as I
have a pet lab who constantly looks for food. I've really been looking at
goldens or german shepherds.
