Hi Alex,
Really enjoyed the giggly story about Zita and the wall but I think its
probably advisable to tell her to take more water with it in future he he.

Hi All,
Many thanks for all the messages of congratulations and well wishes for the
future.
I have to mention, that while training with Zita, in the second week, with her
dog distraction, we were walking along the pavement with Zita on the wall side,
she got her eye on a dog on the other side of the road. We were walking along
quite the thing and everything seemed to be going well when there was a clunk
and we came to a sudden stop. I had no clue to what had happened so I asked
the Trainer. With a straight face, he said, "Zita had been watching the dog
and had walked into the end of a wall at an entrance". It took me a few
minutes to get my senses back and stop laughing for to be able to walk on
again. I did say to the Trainer, "Are you sure that this is a Guide Dog if it
is going to walk into walls". Zita did not make the same mistake again but we
could not help laughing each time we passed this opening.
Alex & Zita
