[gps-talkusers] Re: Trekker at Leader dogs

Hello Mike and everyone,
        The program that leader dog is putting on is still in its infancy.
We are working on developing a Braille Note equivalent. I believe that more
information will be available early 2006

It is unfortunate that this program is product specific. I suppose it might
be hard to train on multiple devices. 

Sendero has no control over this sort of program. It is up to the schools to
provide this sort of training and funding. They all know we are available
and willing to work with any of them and I am quite sure the big schools are
evaluating options.

Mike
