KING 5: Blind man and his dog denied service at a restaurant

Meet Paul and his guide dog Mr. Maple in the video above.

Now, below, Paul and Mr. Maple go on a route (a walk when dog is in harness) with Paul's husband Matthew filming.

Don't the guys seem like fun couple!

There. RantWoman has provided two fun guide dog videos. 

Digression:

RantWoman needs to rant about "You don't look blind." What exactly are blind people supposed to look like? RantWoman for instance is a white woman with white hair, glasses...and a white cane. The glasses help. The glasses plus white cane together confuse people. RantWoman also generally wears some kind of broad brimmed hat "to keep the glare out and the brain cells in."

End of Digression.

RantWoman from time to time has to go off on all the other dogs whose humans drag them everywhere, whether or not the dogs have had specific service dog training or even, in too many cases, basic obedience training. Humans who drag dogs everywhere also tend not to pay attention, for instance, to whether their dogs are taking up the whole bus aisle or wagging distractingly at people trying to get on and off the bus.

Big Giant Frowny Face!!!!!

Good service dog traning trains dogs NOT to interact with other dogs. Dogs who are not trained just want to wag and sniff other dogs.

Maybe "Not All Dogs or all humans." Maybe but RantWoman has had too many trip on dogs and nearly walk on them moments recently getting on and off buses.
