The August 29th date for my stay at guide dog school has been moved up to JULY 18th!!
YIKES...that's only a few weeks away! Lots to do before going away for 26 days! So much to do, so little time.
This is exciting, as I really did not want to wait until the end of August to get this project underway. It will be hotter than I planned to be during all the outdoor training.
As I understand it, we will be out in the town of Morristown everyday. YIKES...gotta get those summer cloths out!
Celebration time! Keep posted for more of this exciting journey! I will have a picture of me and the dog as soon as possible
School starts on July 18th and us students will get their dogs on Monday, July 20th. We have no choice of the name or breed, and won't know until that day. The three major breeds used are Labs, Goldens and Shepards.

Joyce, we are so happy that your new friend, the seeing-eye dog, and you will be together sooner than you thought. It will be quite the experience; but you have always been great with "dogs," and will love every moment of it, and have fun at the same time getting to know each other! It's Gary we worry about--HAHA! Keep in touch, and we are enjoying your Blog! MJ and B
