[nagdu] Event

[d m gina]

Thanks so much,
I'm pleased this is happening to others.
I have had dogs who thought faster than he does, but this doesn't bother me.
he needs encouragement where I have patients to show him once I 
understand what to do.
Even I have to feel the door to think about what is happening.
he was wearing his canny collar so sniffing the floor wasn't the 
problem this time.
I didn't want him to visit others as we were going to our table.
Thanks for writing.

>> Hi Dar,

>> As you know there are about 40 of us who go out to dinner every 2

>> towns. Sometimes I have Braille menu's made for certain restaurants.
>> Right now we are deciding where to go in March. One of my friends

>> diner the next town over from where I live since they have a private
