[NAGDU] guide dog matching process

[Newton, Cherie]

Hi,

I can only speak about GDB, Freedom Guide Dogs and TSE. My first 2 guides were from GDB and I was very happy with the matching process. I thought it was thorough and well thought out. 

Freedom's matching process was also good, but Freedom is a much smaller school with more limited resources. They do very well with what they have to offer. I was very pleased with my 3rd guide which came from them.

TSE in my opinion had the most thorough matching process. There was a lot more detail, questions asked, evaluations done and feedback given. My 4th guide-who I've had for a bit over 10 months now was expertly matched with me for my needs. This dog is top of the line and I couldn't be happier!

Hi all,
On another list someone was asking about the matching process at a specific school, and I was wondering, is the matching process pretty much the same or at least fairly similar at all of the schools? Just curious that's all.
Thanks
Madison
