[nagdu] our efforts with zoos

[Aleeha Dudley]

Hi,
     Some discussion on another list made me think of this. I know
that NAGDU is working to improve access for guide dog handlers to
zoos. I've never taken my dog to a zoo, mainly because I think they're
boring, but I would like to know what the organization is trying to
accomplish with this effort. There was some concern on the other list,
and frankly I agree with some of it, that the dog's presence could
upset the other animals or vice versa. Could someone please fill me in
on what policies are like now and what we, as NAGDU, are trying to do?
Others' thoughts on this subject would also be appreciated.
Thanks,
Aleeha
