[NAGDU] leader dog for the blind denile

[Jeffrey Young]

Hello John, and all:

As part of your application process to the Seeing Eye they will send out an instructor to do a Juno walk, and get to know you a little. If you are denied,  they will tell you exactly why, and exactly what they think you need to work on. I think you'll get a lot out of visiting with an instructor. It will definitely give you, and them much more information then a video. 
I'm currently with my 2nd dog from The seeing Eye, and I'd be happy to answer any questions you have. Feel free to email me off list at jeff.young8806 at gmail.com

Whether I'm walking alone, with a cane, or with my dog, I just tend to walk quickly and always have. I hope that wouldn't be grounds for rejection sometime in the future.
