    I’m kneeling beside Mylo the German Shepherd Seeing Eye dog. We’re on stage in front of a colorful sign that says MTJGD for More Than Just Great Dancing. Mylo has his nose stretched toward me as if he’s about to kiss me.

In April I have book talks in Sydney, Melbourne & Auckland. I’m determined to have my guide dog by my side. – mjesto: City of South San Francisco

    I’m standing at the front door of the USDA APHIS building in South San Francisco. I have my hand on the door and am standing in profile looking serious and determined. Mylo is pointing his big ears. Above the door it says “560” in huge letters, and on the far left side it says “USDA APHIS.” There is a big potted plant in the middle.
