Today was the day we went to the pet store and bought some of the needed dog supplies for when the Guide Dog comes home. I got the crate, which was highly recommended by my GDB Regional Resource, a soft bed for the crate, a mat for the tie-down area in the kitchen, 2 stainless steel bowls for food and water, a food mat, and cleaner (safe for pets) if there's an accident. The crate is portable and after a few months, can be folded up and put away when needed again. The bed can be used with a tie-down during the night. Eventually, when everyone in the house settles down, the dog can go off tie-down. The bowls are sturdy with inset handles and rubber around the bottom to keep from slipping.
It's exciting to actually have some real tangible items the dog will need. It's less than 2 months before I leave for GDB and the CLOCK IS TICKING!
