Re: guide dogs!
I wouldn't say I disliked Reever, rather she made it really clear she didn't like me and just wanted her trainer Paul. It's pretty clear when a dog spends all of their time lying in front of the front door or when I tried to stroke her she literally walked away to sit in a corner.
I think Reever is a very one person orientated dog, she loves everybody, but if I leave she always follows me, indeed even now three years later she refuses to get into the back of a car unless she's seen me get in first, and if she sees me put my shoes on preparing to go out she will not leave me.
Apparently that's a typical difference between Labradors and Retrievers, indeed the lady who was training with me had a very large laid back golden lab called Norton, and I remember thinking after meeting him "well I wish they'd given me that dog" .
of course it all worked out in the end, but it wasn't a particularly fun process, especially as I was stuck inside for much of it seeing nobody accept my trainer.
