Guide Dogs. |
This
mailing list is sponsored by the
National Association of Guide Dog
Users,
(NAGDU), A Division of the
National Federation of the Blind.
The purpose of this list is to
provide guide dog users and other
interested people with an easy
way to access information about
guide dogs and to assist people
in dealing with issues related to
working with a guide
dog. Topics can include but
are not limitted to the benefits
and disadvantages of using a
guide dog, guide dog
schools, training, care,
equipment, puppy raising, public
access issues, legislation as it
affects guide dog users, and
public attitudes about guide dogs
and their use by the blind as
well as the activities of the
National association of guide Dog
Users. If you are trying to
contact your puppy raiser, or
fellow classmates from your guide
dog school please feel free to
post contact information here but
we would ask that such posts be
kept to a minimum, and any and
all non-guide dog-related
correspondence be kept private,
or posted to a more appropriate
list. We would like to allow
for open questions, although we
will not permit an endless debate
between guide dog users and cane
users over the merits of either
cane or dog as a mobility
tool. We believe each has
its place.There will also be
occasional posts concerning
issues of major importance to
the blind as well as
announcements concerning
activities of the national
Association of Guide dog Users,
and The National Federation of
the Blind.
