    • @mjbutnotmaryjane
      @mjbutnotmaryjane 3 роки тому +8

      There's a very long waiting list & it's very difficult to get a dog not only bc of the costs to train but also the time!
      Esp because of the pandemic, Guide Dogs UK has seen less donations (and they can't open any stores or do any fundraising) so it is becoming harder as they do hire a lot of people, trainers are not volunteers but there's also other employees within the charity that are not volunteers on quite high wages.
      I wonder how long it'll take her to get a new guide dog since Olga is retiring! And if she's going private or through Guide Dogs UK. (You can pay to have your pet trained to be a guide dog if you really wanted to and have the money for it!)

    Love it! ❤
    Off the topic but still a very relevant thing:
    Even though I would never disturb a working guide dog, I can say it’s hard. Because it’s such an adorable and heart-warming thing to see, the instinct says to go and hug the dog. Before the rational thinking obviously comes in and saves the situation. So I perfectly undestand children and some impulsive adults making that mistake. That’s why it is so important to explain it to people and wear a special leash or sign that informs them.
    Just the other day I was so glad to see a video of such a good parent explaining her child why it’s not okay. It was a great example of how it should be done. Instead of harshly saying no and hushing the child she explained kindly and in a way the child actually understands the issue and the reason behind it, all the while being respectful and polite to the handler as well❤

    I just love how as soon as they’re at a stopping point the dog just sits down even if it’s for one second

    She’s such a love. Looks a lot like my black lab mix. 🐕‍🦺
