Sunday Edition for December 5, 2021 – GDUI and Traveling Internationally With Your Guide Dog

Episode Notes

This week Anthony speaks with Penny, Sarah, Sheila and Melanie from GDUI about traveling internationally with your guide dogs. As some of you may know some major restrictions were put into place in July that the CDC and other agencies did not do well to let the public know and as a result some Guide Dog users were placed in unimaginable positions. Anthony will also speak to Dean (an ACB Member) who was forced to leave his guide in Nigeria after attending a Funeral due to the lack of his airline, school or any agency apprising him of the new restrictions.

Fear not folks, Due to the advocacy of Anthony, Gabriel Lopez Kafati; Penny and the ladies of GDUI; and with help from a few of the Guide schools this matter was addressed and some of the restrictions have been lifted. We will bring you explanations of the new rules and regulations as well as go over a checklist we should all have when traveling out of the country with our beloved guides.

We will also open up the conversation for any questions or comments so join us live using the below zoom information or listen on ACB Media 1 at 1pm EDT this Sunday and directly after wherever you listen to your podcasts.
