h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

To make sure that this convo isn't mixed with that of training of normal dogs :S

It is very interesting to see the training of a guide dog,

I was lucky enough to be allowed to make friends with a puppy being trained, and they make some of the best puppies to be around, although they are unfortunate in that they have the amount of fuss given to them by outsiders reduced fairly quickly as they are raised.

You've very lucky, I haven't seen any training! I am trying to 'copy' their standards as much as possible, which would be easier if I knew what their methods were!

I know they get plenty of fuss when they are not working, if thee solicit attention from people they can't be Guide Dogs, so it's in agood cause.
