Index Number: 6754 Vix *, I've been following with interest your posts about doggie school and their concern about permitting a HI person to attend. I have a friend who has a seeing eye guide dog, and another friend who has a hearing ear dog. I was quite impressed with demonstrations of hearing ear dogs at the SHHH convention last summer. The hearing ear dogs tend to be smaller breeds than the seeing eye dogs, at least the ones I've seen. Both kinds are amazing animals. What I was wondering, is it possible to have a dog "cross trained" to perform both functions? Has anyone ever heard of this? Jack. ...
