Hi Linda; Write me directly and let me know about your experiences at the guide dog school. I belong to the group with NFB and am pondering about getting a dog in the future. My husband is a lot older than I am and a dog would also be a good companion. I roomed with a girl, at NFB convention, and had some bad experiences. Her dog was not well behaved. For this reason I have mixed fealings about what path I want to take.Terry Powers [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Am getting it with the Pk. Will also have it installed into the m-power when I can send my classic back for transpant. What do you think of the Senderro with the Pk? I will be learning this, and hopefully will be going to Seeing Eye for training. I am scheduled to have my Pk with the Gps installed by the end of this week. Any pointers?
