[nagdu] extremely basic guide dog questions...

[The Pawpower Pack]

Sherry and all,

A toileting harness isn't always used because the dog needs it.  Many  
handlers with disabilities in addition to blindness, find this tool  
useful because a harness like this allows them to pick up after their  
dog independently.
Also sometimes if a handler lives in a very snowy environment, or a  
place with a great deal of debris on the ground, they may find a  
toileting harness useful in keeping the dog's poop in one spot.   
Sometimes environments like this make it very hard to thoroughly clean  
up after a dog.  I have taught the dogs to use the harness and it has  
been very easy.
