Bobbi Bubier just graduated with her fifth. When a graduate retires a guide, they return for a 21-day class (versus 28 days for first-time students), where they are carefully matched with a new dog. Then its back to life as usual, which for Mazzola means logging the 3,000 internship hours needed to earn her license to practice somatic psychotherapy and travela lot. And for Bubier, it means a return to her home in Maine where she lives with her husband of two years and writes romance novels; her second book, Cobwebs, will be published this spring. (Her first book is titled Wishes.) Mazzolas vision loss was caused by Retinitis Pigmentosa. By the time she was in middle school, it had progressed to the point that she had to learn Braille and adaptive technologies. But it wasnt until she turned 18 that she could enroll at GDA. Class started three days before the end of her senior year, which meant she had to miss her high school graduation. A month later, Mazzola did make it to graduation, but this time it was from GDA with her first guide dog, Tess. That fall, the team started college. As an undergraduate, Mazzola stayed close to home in Southern California, graduating with a bachelor of art in psychology. The team headed to San Francisco for graduate school to attend one of two universities offering a degree that blended her professional interests psychology and massage therapy. (She had earned her massage therapy certification prior to entering college, which she did to help pay for her education.) In 2008, she graduated with her masters degree in somatic counseling psychology. Currently, Mazzola is working toward completing her internship hours, and is halfway there. Tess was with Mazzola throughout college and for the beginning of the internship program. The team worked together for 10 years. When Mazzola retired Tess, she returned to GDA for her second guide dog, Chandler. When they arent working at Mazzolas internship, this busy and adventurous team can be found just about anywhere except at home. I never want to be the person who goes to work in the morning and comes home every evening, said Mazzola. I love learning whats out there experiencing new things, meeting new people and going new places. Mazzola brings her the skys the limit attitude to everything she does. Whether she is learning to sail, which she did with Chandler; practicing the martial art of jujitsu; riding horseback; or traveling, both domestic and abroad, Mazzolas travels have taken her all over the country and the world. As soon as she finalizes plans for one trip, shes thinking about where to go next. She is making plans now for a trip to Europe with Chandler. Having Chandler with me makes so many of the things I do and the traveling so much easier, said Mazzola. I feel like theres nothing I cant do. The difference is there are some things that I have to do with assistance. Like Mazzola, Bobbi Bubier has never let her visual impairment keep her from doing whatever she puts her mind to. Bubiers visual impairment started when she was 19 years old and her retinas bilaterally detached. Multiple surgeries on both eyes helped, but she was left without peripheral vision. At 28, she fell from the countertop while lining shelves. The concussion from the fall too her remaining vision. It was 1972 and this single mother of two children, ages 5 and 6, she was determined that her kids not look at her handicap, but rather her ability. She knew it was mission accomplished when her now-grown son said to her, Growing up we knew you were blind, but we never really looked at it that way. We never realized you were that blind. Bubier graduated from GDA with her first guide dog Wicket, in 1984. She has returned to the school four times and, this past December, she graduated with Honora, her fifth guide dog. In between, there have been three other guide dogs, Lincoln, Crystal and Caddy. For Bubier, GDA feels like home. The continuity of having some of the same staff there every time I am at school is so comforting, said Bubier. I have worked with several trainers more than once and that makes it easier. I know them and they know me. Everyone there is so compassionate and encouraging. Even though we are a part of a class, they give each student so much personal attention and work to accommodate our needs. Its been 27 years since Bubier first arrived at GDA. In those years, she has raised her two children; raised a foster child; written four romance novels; and, two years ago, found a romance in her own life that just could provide the inspiration for her next novel. Writing is a passion, said Bubier. When I write, I dont feel blind. I write about what I know and the characters become real to me. Bubiers very real romance with Richard could easily be titled Puppy Love, as her guide dog Caddy is at the center of their love story. The two met shortly after Bubier graduated with Caddy. A bad knee sent Bubier to rehab. The pastor at the pairs church sent Richard to Bubier, who needed someone to walk her new guide. Richard came to the rehab facility every day to walk Caddy and soon the couple found themselves taking a walk togetherdown the aisle. I have a new marriage, a new guide dog and a new book coming out. Does being blind get any better this? I am rich with a home full of love, Bubier said from the heart. Mazzola is enjoying her own happily ever after, thanks to Chandler and GDA. The school does an excellent job of matching the students and their guides. Chandler is one of the smartest dogs Ive ever met. We are able to communicate. He knows what I want and need, and I can feel what he wants, said Mazzola. When Bubier is asked why she comes all the way out to California from Maine for a guide dog, she tells people, When youre choosing a university, you want to go to the one that will give you the best education. At GDA thats what I get and, I get to be a part of this wonderful family. VETS CORNER AGING OR ARTHRITIS? As our dogs get older, many of us start to notice little changes in their behavior that we often chalk up to old age. They may be a little slower getting up in the morning or might not be as quick to fetch their favorite toy. But how do you know if this is just normal aging or if it may indicate something more? One of the most common orthopedic problems we see in older dogs is arthritis, or degenerative joint disease. There are multiple factors that can ultimately cause arthritis but, regardless of how arthritis develops, the result is deterioration of joint cartilage, which can lead to inflammation, pain, and bony abnormalities. Unfortunately, arthritis often goes untreated in older dogs because the symptoms are sometimes assumed to be a normal part of aging. Some of the most common indicators of arthritis include: Slow to rise from a seated or lying position Stiffness after exercise or after rising from a lying position Reluctance to jump Joint pain (licking at a particular joint may indicate discomfort) Swelling of the joints Limping or lameness If any of these symptoms are present, we recommend scheduling an appointment with your regular veterinarian for a routine checkup. If arthritis is the culprit, there are many options to consider when it comes to treatment. Simple changes around the home can make a huge difference, such as getting a raised bed or a well-padded bed; elevating food and water bowls; using ramps to get in and out of cars or furniture; and using slip-free floor coverings. Maintaining a healthy weight and keeping them active with low impact activities is also important. Supplements can be used such as glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, fish oils and certain vitamins. Prescription medications such as Rimadyl, Metacam, Etogesic, Previcox, Deramaxx, and injectable Adequan are also available. Some alternative treatments to consider include physical therapy, hydrotherapy, massage therapy and acupuncture. Early detection and treatment of arthritis are key in keeping your dog healthy and happy, so make sure to schedule those annual checkups with your veterinarian. DONOR SPOTLIGHT They Did the Math and it Added up to GDA Doug and Judy Fisher have been doing their homework together since they met in 10th-grade geometry class. That was 45 years ago. So when it came time to do their estate planning, the couple did their homework again, and again, the subject was math. Everything added up to naming Guide Dogs of America in their trust. We love dogs and want to help people. Giving to GDA was the ideal way to do both, said Doug Fisher. When we learned how much of every dollar goes directly into the program, we were impressed. It made the decision to give to the school very easy. The Fishers visited GDA when they retired to tour the campus and meet the staff. They saw first-hand the work and dedication that goes into training a guide dog and were in awe of what they saw and what they learned. A guide dog gives a blind person abilities that they dont have, said Fisher. When you give to GDA, you know that your donation dollars are making a difference. You can see the results. We plan to visit the school next year and attend a graduation. Just thinking about seeing the students graduate with their dogs brings tears to my eyes. KIDS QUESTIONS GDA Puppy Raisers Share School Kids Questions Asked and Lessons Learned Many times, we get calls to have a speaker go out to schools or we have children who come out to tour the Guide Dogs of America campus. Our volunteer puppy raisers and their puppies-in-training teach the students about what it takes to become a guide dog. After the presentation, the kids are encouraged to ask questions and share what they have learned. We asked our volunteers to share some of the most memorable questions and lessons learned. What follows is a collection of some of the comments that have made them smile: Questions Asked How does a dog put on its harness? Can you train my dog? Does he miss his mom? Is he a Vanilla Lab? Is he always this calm? How does your dog help a blind person cook? Why dont you use Chihuahuas? What does the dog do when the blind person is driving? How does your dog tell a blind person how to drive a car? Can the dog read Braille? Does the dog go to the movies? How does the dog know where to go in the supermarket? Lessons Learned People don't need a dog in the shower. GDA dogs own two collars. The guide dogs owner had to go to school. You can't pet the guide dogs. A good guide dog does NOT chase cats. A guide dog cannot be lazy or always be tempted by things or be scared when a noisy thing comes. If the guide dog is not perfect, it cannot go to college. My dog would never go to Guide Dog College because she is WAY too crazy!
