- Well, Bill, you finally did it. You made it all the way through the
- training, and ended up with a special, wonderful dog! I am so happy for
- you. The relationship between a person and his dog guide is very special.
- I continue to be proud of my dog, I never take his good work for granted.
- If I do, I hope someone will remind me that it's not to be taken for
- granted. The dogs need lots of praise; after all, that's what they work
- for. So how tall is Maxine? How much does she weigh? Does she eat well?
- Is she sensitive and needs little correction, or do you occasionally have to
- get firm with her, or a little of both? Have you worked her much in your
- home area yet? It's exciting, and a bit scary, to start working in the home
- area, alone, with no instructor anywhere near to ask questions.
