Abstract
Studies one dog guide traveler to determine if use of a Sonicguide along with the dog would enable her to make more educated judgments about her course of travel, so enhancing her overall mobility. A description of the training program is presented outlining the procedure of using the Sonicguide first with the long cane and then with the dog guide in each travel unit. Although the training proved successful, several questions were raised that need further research.Keywords
