Some states provide funds to help maintain a dog guide.  Usually under 
social service guidelines.  They look at the dog as being a necessity 
of life.  Not sure what states do or don't, but the amount is generally 
small.  In most cases it would pay for a bag of food a month and two 
vet visits a year.  Also, Canada has something along those lines, 
national health care for dog guides.  I can look into it further if you 
like.
