Hi Stacey,
I do not have a guide dog right now, but I have had one in the past. From
my experience when working the dog, sometimes the bag tends to fall off; the
shoulder a little. However, I mentioned in one of my messages about the bag
that they have a wider strap that you can attach to it and therefore it
might stay on the shoulder a little better. I have to admit, I like fanny
packs a lot when using a guide dog. But If I had a dog I would certainly
try using the bag with the dog because I really like the bag a lot. I hope
that helps you.

If you use a guide dog, how well does using this bag and working the dog
work out?

Subject: [Braillenote] measurements of executive carrying bag
Hi Folks,
Here are the measurements of the executive carrying bag from
Handi-Works. Remember this is a soft sided black leather bag and not
the
most easiest to measure accurately
Height of bag: 12 inches including handle
width of bag: 11 inches
thickness or depth of bag empty: 4.5 inches
on the top it has a leather handle attached very secure!
starting from the bottom of the front, what I call the front, about 4.5
inches up from bottom, you have a zipper pocket. It is the full width
of
the bag, minus the attached cell phone pocket on the left side.
about two inches up from that pocket is another zippered pocket, again
goes
the full width of the bag, minus the cell phone pocket.
now these two zippers go either way and start on either side of this
pocket
half way down the side of the pocket and is behind the first pocket. it
zips from one side half way down to the other side half way down.
now if you open this pocket up you will find the follwoing;
two more pockets, divided by a zippered compartment, that you could put
money or something else you want to make sure doesn't fall out.
the front of this zippered pocket that is inside the bigger zipper
pocket,
which remember is only the second zippered pocket up from the bottom,
has
two rows of 3 small pockets each, that you lay your credit cards or
business cards, and the last one down on the left has a clear window for
picture ID.
Now the zipper pocket that all this is in, does unzip far enough for a
sighted person to visually see your picture ID. I feel that is why they
have a zippered pocket behind these small credit card pockets so your
money
or something valuable doesn't fall out.
Now another two inches above that zippered pocket roughly, is another
zippered pocket, again going the full width, minus the cell phone
pocket,
this pocket is just one pocket that goes just below the dep of the start
of
the first pocket and is behind the other two pockets I all ready
described.
Now the last zippered pocket is right at the top front edge and again
goes
the full width of the bag, minus the cell phone pocket. it goes the full
height of the bag about 11 inches, minus the height of the handle, and
the
full depth of the bag. So this is one large pocket which holds one
braillenote putting it in the long way, or two braille note pks or
probably
two boicenotes.
You could also stick some pieces of paper or Like I do some business
envelopes to deliver or mail.
this pocket only has one zipper and again goes part way down on both
sides.
Now on the back side of the executive bag there are two more pockets.
the first one is about two inches down from the top and only has a
velcro
closure, but this pocket goes the rest of the length to the bottom of
the
bag.
the last pocket is still another zippered pocket, which is about one
inch
down from the first pocket.
both these pockets go the full width of the bag, minus the cell phone
pocket.
This last pocket and the third one up from the bottom on the front are
big
enough to hold cd-rom disks.
Now the last pocket is the cell phone pocket on the left side of the bag
as
you look at it from the front. it has a velcro flap that holds the
contaents in.
the measurerments are;
roughly 5 inches tall, by slightly over 2 inches wide, by 1.75 inches
deep.
but again this is soft sided and can strech some what for a fatter or
taller phone or object.
Now you get two shoulder straps, one is very much like your strap on
your
braillenote or voicenote, the other strap is black leather and narrower
and
matches the black leather bag. they both have clips on them to attach to
the metal rings on either side, which are very secure.
the strap like you have on your note takers has plastic clips, while the
black leather strap has metal clips.
weight of executive carrying bag is;
1.3 pounds
545 grams
at least that is what my talking british food scale states.
The cost is $39.95 plus shipping.
I hope this gives you all a better idea of what I and others are talking
about when we say the executivbe carrying bag from Handi-Works.
