Poem about a Dog by Peter Menkin

Poem about the Guide Dog Christmas by Peter Menkin. Friday, August 11, 2006 My friend\'s Guide Dog is retiring: a poem-like statement called \"Poem about a Dog\"... Jan has a Guide Dog that is now 11-1/2 years old; time for retirement for Christmas, the dog. This is a poem about the Guide Dog, but more a poem-like statement. I am sure there are better poem type poems, though I think you as a reader of this blog will enjoy this one. Jan gets a new dog this weekend, a young one about 22 months. Guide Dogs for the Blind is located on their campus in San Rafael, California. That is North of San Francisco across the Golden Gate Bridge. To get a dog, one must apply, successfully go through their training, which is three weeks on campus. This training includes, sleep, eat, train, get used to knowing the new dog. One lives on campus for the training period. This time is the beginning of a human and animal bond. I think this poem acceptable for a young girl or boy.
