You are absolutely right on that and to the detriment of my waist line I've found a store that sells them locally. It's near a ski store so I'll have trouble avoiding them once the skis go out on display.

Dave, I thought of you the other day when I stopped to let a lady and her guide dog cross the road. wanted to ask you how on earth the dog knows when to cross and when not to? bloomin clever aren't they.
They certainly are. Puppy walkers train the dogs to stop and wait at the kerb, just by repeated command. After they leave us, the advanced trainers will refine the kerb stop. It is the blind person's decision to move "forwards".
Dogs are trained to move in straight lines. Hence, when the dog reaches the for side of the road, (Where the bp can feel the harness rise, indicating a kerb), the bp must instruct the dog, "left" or "right" ie, the bp has gained route knowledge.
If you ever get the chance to have a go with a demonstration guide dog, where you wear the blindfold, hold just the harness, and instruct the dog "forwards", do it.
Just had an awful night and day, the new one had severe S&D, after its journey, but after anti-Bs and re-hydration, it's looking sound again.
