Willy, just thought i'd wish you luck in October.  I'll be doing the same
thing that month as well.
The hard thing for me will be adjusting to the command differences between
Seeing Eye and Guide Dogs.
Guide Dogs users use their left foot on the down curb and their right hand
for leash corrections while dropping the harness handle.
I know what you mean about keeping the old dog.  I am struggling with that
myself and have determined the only dog to get jealous will be my wife's
dog.
Anyway, good luck and say hi to all my friends there for me...
