Marion,
Sorry, but I was away over the weekend. If it's not too late for feedback,
here you go:
1. Since you are writing specifically about guide dogs, I would change all
language to reflect this. Service animals of other sorts aren't important to
this brochure, plus there is debate about what is and isn't a service
animal, so I recommend you stick with 'guide dog' or 'dog guide'.
2. I'd kill the exclamation point at the end of point 4. While your point is
important--the handler is in charge-- I think exclamation points are
amateurish in a professional publication.
3. We are blind people speaking for ourselves and acting for ourselves,
working as equal partners with our sighted neighbors.
tighter: We are blind people speaking and acting for ourselves, working as
equal partners with our sighted neighbors.
4. If you found this information interesting, perhaps you know others who
would, as well! Please feel free to pass this on!- again, I'd kill the
exclamation points
I think your title is fine, and I hope this helps.
