Dog Users: Social Networking while Distancing<BR> <BR>Please circulate
the
following message as widely as
appropriate.<BR> <BR>
As we create physical distance between us as protection from the COVID-19
virus,
the National Association of Guide Dog Users, a strong & proud division
of
the National Federation of the blind, Invites you to create social
connections
and togetherness. “Yappy Hour” is sponsored and hosted by the board of
directors
of NAGDU. Our first event will be a simple get-acquainted time with no topic
nor
agenda. In our first Yappy Hour, you are welcome to share with the group
your
favorite adult beverage, your original food creations, or ask a question
about a
dog training or behavior concern. In other words, its more about the humans
whith guide dogs in their lives than about the dogs. One of our nontopics
will
be what we can do in the future. For instance, during the holidays, I
facilitated a Zoom meeting in which I sent out an ingredient list and taught
others how to make home-made egg nog. Maybe we can cook together! Anyone
want to
learn to make seafood lasagna?
<BR> <BR>
