kathryn is going to worcester on thursday

she will have some test whilst walking with a real dog this time

[linda]

kathryn passed todays tests

next stage

kathryn gets linked up with a personal dog handler and a mobility person

after this assessment

she waits for a suitable dog

and then goes to worcester for 2 weeks for training with a trained dog

so hopefully within 2 years she will be a proud dog keeper

That is really good news Linda - what a lot goes into placing a dog with a new owner - I wish her Good Luck.

Hi Linda,

Is it time for an update?

I have the vision of your daughter leading a man around town........... if only you had managed to catch a few pics, they would have been priceless.........I wonder what his job description was........could you imagine it

Hopefully she has a beautiful dog by now, I would love to find out

update

kathryin is now accepted by the blind dogs trust xxxx
it may take 1 year up to max 3 years to find her the most suitable dog
they match up kaths walk speed gait etc
plus they match up kaths other needs
to find a dog which will work as it were

mean while the dogs place
feel kath needs extra mobility training
so lots is going on
kathryn is very excited

im gob smacked and a bit embarrassed how much the dogs people actually do
my daughter is in very very good hands

her life is going to be changed by these peoples support
and the doggie xxxx

Linda, your more than welcome.....I love to look through the older threads, I sometimes sit here for a good hour trying to find something that catches my eye, and you seem to produce the most amazing threads, so thank you xxXxx

I wish Kathryin all the luck in the world, I am sure she doesn't need it I am sure that this dog will make a huge difference and in many, many ways

I am glad I found this thread, and I hope that its updated here and there, just to let us know how things are and for progress x

And Linda, you should remember to give yourself some credit for all the things that you have done because your just as wonderful toOOoooOOOooOooo
