I still haven't decided about guiding eyes. I feel really bad, their so trusting they keep e-mailing me notes and stuff. Even if I do decide to go though with it, I have this feeling I'll regret it. It's like this: if I keep Kirby, I'll be temporarily not able to raise anymore service dogs. But if I give Kirby away he'll be gone forever. Plus I don't want to choose guiding eyes just because it the "Nobel" or "right" thing to do. However, I'm really grateful to guiding eyes and what their willing to do for me, and it would be good to take him places again(he misses that) and to re-enter the world of puppy-raisers. Not to mention he still may not make it! The stress is KILLING
me!

Hey,
Wow, that is a really hard decision to make!! I can't even imagine how stressed out you probably feel right now :(
Well, i don't really have a lot of advice, as it is your decision to make...maybe make a pros and cons list? That might help, although i know the emotions of all this might not be the same on paper compared to how you feel in real life :S Good luck with everything!!

Hugs,
Nat

Good idea with the pros and cons lists. Plus doing something for someone else always makes you feel good.
