Seminars@Hadley asks: Is a Guide Dog for Me?
Winnetka, IL- Join us for Hadley's next Seminars@Hadley on Monday, October 8,
at 1 p.m. Central Time, 18:00 GMT, as we help you explore many questions about
dog guides. Jay Stiteley, associate manager of The Seeing Eye in Morristown,
New Jersey, explains what navigating your environment is like with a dog guide.
He will describe how the dogs are trained, explain how dogs and handlers are
matched and talk about the considerations of and responsibilities associated
with having a dog guide. He will describe the variety of training options
available. You will learn what questions to ask to determine whether or not a
dog guide might be an option for you. Dog user and Hadley instructor, Patti
