When I first explored what it would be like to become a guide dog user, it was like traveling to a strange land full of unfamiliar routines, feelings, nomenclature, and equipment. I wish this handbook had been available back then, but am so pleased that it has finally become a reality to help from this point forward. This concise and informative handbook answers questions not only for the prospective guide dog team, but also the general public. The introduction sets the stage with heartfelt accounts from multiple guide dog users. The handbook then covers it all, from filling out the first application to learning how to handle the myriad responsibilities of being the human part of the team. It is an accurate and comprehensive reference. It is also important for the reader to take note of how much GDUI supports us, especially during those times of access denial, in the wake of disaster, and in those instances of the retirement or death of a beloved canine partner. In conclusion, this is the perfect manual to support a partnership and path of independence. I hope you share it with your family, friends, colleagues, blindness and disability advocacy organizations, and other guide and service dog handlers. Ann Chiappetta, M.S. Author of Follow Your Dog: A Story of Love and Trust GDUI Life Member

This handbook gives the potential guide dog handler excellent and timely information. It also is a wonderful reference for anyone interested in helping individuals living with blindness and visual impairment. It prepares the individual, debunks misunderstandings and gives authentic snapshots of the new guide dog user experience. I highly recommend this book.
