Guide dog for the blind Marco recounts his life “as he saw it,” through his surrogate, his owner, handler and human dad, Tom Hanson. From puppyhood, training, working as a guide dog and into retirement, Marco shares his experiences with people and situations through stories and reflections.
Sometimes humorous, sometimes serious or thought-provoking, his memories of life as a guide dog span almost fourteen years, four states, and a variety of adventures, travel, and people and canines he meets along the way.
Included is a section on information about guide dogs, guide dog schools, and services for the blind and visually impaired.
About The Author
I was a typical kid growing up in central Wisconsin in the late 1940s until one day, while playing in the field with my brothers, I realized I couldn’t see the house. Detached retinas in both eyes led to subsequent surgeries and total blindness by the time I was six years old.
Follow guide dog Marco’s unforgettable journey from playful puppy to faithful companion, sharing heartfelt adventures, inspiring lessons, humor, and the extraordinary bond with his human.
