As the other guy said the guide dog schools do watch the online sales places
and they will go after people who are selling their harnesses. Think of it
there is no true laws saying you must have one harness over the other but
schools like Seeing Eye put their logo's on their harnesses and if I gave it
to Joe Blow and he had a dog trained by some place that didn't' know what
they were doing it would look bad on that school. There are schools here in
the states that do not teach exactly what the others do so it would be like
telling your employer that you got your degree at Harvard and actually never
graduated from a reputable college at all.

Hi: I don't have a pup either. There is a big U.S. National group called
Lions Clubs of America who are big with guide dogs. Something sounds wrong
about not being able to buy a collar for your dog because it is not made in
the U.S. Ya, contact the Lions Club in your area, or even the National
group, and see what they say aabout the situation. It might be that a
government organization can not supply a collar made abroad, outside the
U.S., but I should think you could be able to buy one on the open market. I
can not imagine that the training routine would incur any restrictions
regarding what make or model of collar a dog wears.If you need some phone
numbers I can try and find something for you but you know where you live and
what the current organizations she is working with are. That info might have
an impact on the situation regulations. Rick USA
