[NFB-Krafters-Korner] OT dog class

When I went there in 2007 to Seeing AI, I thought that training was a little too fast paced for me. I need a lot of repetition with routes. The The dog they gave me was a really neat dog but she had aggression toward other dogs. So it didn't work out. My face and guide dogs wasn't so strong after that but then when I went to Guiding Eyes a year later, I was pleasantly surprised. I would never go anywhere else. I have my retired guide now as a pet and when I get my new one, it will be dog number five.

She was all social and not much work. It wasn’t really safe for him to have her. He tried leash correction but to no avail and he kept springing his ankle and stuff. Needless to say Laura is back with her puppy raiser family and my husband has lost faith and guide dogs. I was bitten by a dog once as a child though I did deserve it and really don’t feel  comfortable getting a dog. I don’t think I would use the dog as much as they should be worked. Does anyone know where you can get a dog that’s for people with more than one Disability? I have epilepsy and some balance issues besides being Low Vision. When I lose more of my vision as I age  or whatever the cause I might consider.
