I'm so glad you brought these questions up, Danielle. I've been very
curious about how owner training works.  For those that do owner train, do
you have any links/resources about the process of how you actually go about
the training?  I understand basic dog training, but I've always been very
curious how someone would go about owner training a guide dog.
