[NAGDU] Pilot Dogs

[d m gina]

I have a dog from pilot, where I would love to get one more.
A golden, a small golden, and a male.
This black lab is a sweety, where friendlyness is over the top.
I have to ask folks not to look at her, she melts, and then forgets her job.
It took her several years to show me I was going to be ok.
Of course I would like me to when I get fed loll.
Jimping on people, we have to keep working on that as well.
She knows jumping on me slows down the wheels of progress.
Wishing you the best.

> However, I am interested in them for Three reasons, please see below.

> 1.      They are located in the Midwest, so they have the same weather as
> ND, so the dog wouldn't have to make major weather adjustments after
> returning home.
> 2.      My brother no longer lives with me, but he is extremely allergic to
> most kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I would like to get a
> standard poodle that would allow me to be around him without having to worry
> about him getting sick. I wish schools did labradoodles still.
> 3.      As a pastor, I need to have a clean appearance. Most guide dogs are
> labradores that shed and make the room seam like it just snowed from the
> inside. With a poodle, you don't have the worry of walking into a meeting
> with pounds of dog hair covering your body.
> 4.      Thank you.
> 5.      Cole Roberts
