https://mstdn.ca/@JadziaAdrienne...There are always ebbs and flows with the guide dog lifestyle, but having now been home a month with Anise, if the way she works now, is the way she works her whole life, it's going to be fun. She is starting to generalize APS buttons, as demonstrated by her targeting one today that she had not been formally taught. Newport still tries to get into her harness if he sees it, but I know that will pass. Having done

https://mstdn.ca/@JadziaAdrienne...love when people ask as I am managing my dog or rewarding her, "Is she in training?" The thing is, they're always in training. Yes, they have been formally trained, but like us, their learning doesn't stop when they complete formal training and are issued. If a dog is being asked to do anything, go anywhere, etc, it is in "training", just as we are as we move through the world. #totallyblind #travel #nuisance

https://mstdn.ca/@JadziaAdrienne...Although I appreciate the sentiment, I don't care that your dog is friendly, I don't care if mine wants to visit, and if you know it's a working dog, do you not realize that distracting her actually gets her into trouble, prompting me to have to manage her?

https://mstdn.ca/@JadziaAdrienne...Why is it that when I come cruising down the sidewalk at a good clip with my cane, that pet dog owners usually move out of my way, but when I'm doing the same thing with my #guidedog they either stand in my way, or allow their barking dog to hijack her focus? They often say something like, "my dog is friendly", or even, "they just want to play", or even, "oh no, Fido, that's a working dog".
