My favorite was her dog that was a mix of Mastif, Great Dane and Newfoundland (she was a gentle giant) and My Golden Retriever who my Mom trained for my guide dog who walked with me from 1995 till 2006 or 2009. Currently I'm a shared owner of a DDR German Shepared and Belguim Malanmua Mix. (we werent' told it was part belgium Mal till we had it for three weeks and the breeder wouldn't take it back. This is the first time I had to have someone come in and help train. Still he's a beautiful Dog.</div><div style="font-size:xx-large" class="gmail_default">Still going to go for a guide dog, just think it would be nice to have one trained by one of the schools instead of a home trained dog. This dog we have now isn't right for guide work And he's shared with others in the house. My eldest brother named him Bear. And since Etienne died Bear has still been looking for Etienne. <br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, May 14, 2025 at 7:50\u202fAM Fred Fournier via NHLakesChapter <<a href="mailto:nhlakeschapter@nfbnet.org" target="_blank">nhlakeschapter@nfbnet.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto">Good morning all,</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"> Welcome to the group Lisa, John and Josh!
