Thanks everyone for the replies! It is VERY hard to give up a guide dog, but in the long run, after you go to the "graduation ceromony" and you hand your dog over to the blind person, it's all really worth it. I'm in junior high so i'm going to start taking him to school when he's older.


Hi! I'm Kari! I have a yellow labrador named Finn! That's awesome that you're raising Tennyson to be someone's eyes! I LOVE the name, did you choose it? I want to train Finn to be a "Pet Partner" therapy dog.

No, I didn't name Tennyson, but I'm glad you like his name Guide Dogs names their whole litters by the same letter, so his brother's name was Templeton, and his sister's name was Twyla. Our retired one's litter was Barkley,(him) his brother, Bob and his sister Barbara. They come up with some pretty weird names so we got lucky this time
Thanks everyone for being so interested......if you want to learn more about guide dogs go to www.guidedogs.com
