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
