An organization in greater Hartford trains dogs to serve as guides for
blind people. Walking down Hartford's Pratt Street, I saw one trainer adopt a
blocking stance while a second trainer worked the dog to go around the blocker.
You didn't think I could find a guide dog and trainers in Russia to pair with this photo,
did you? I couldn't. How about some photos from Mandrogi,
a center for traditional crafts, on the way to St. Petersburg?

The seeing eye dog looks like it was fun.
A guide dog in an unfamiliar city might be a good idea!
Good work with the guide dogs.
The Phoenix newspaper had an article the other day that said that some culinary organization rated Scottsdale as the number two city in the country for foodies, and Hartford was ranked as number one.
Love the dog trainers and the beautiful crafts and artists.
Nice shot of the dog in training!
The Russian craftmanship is beautiful.
A great post and captures, as always, Jack, the guide dogs are so incredible! And I love the pics from Russia, I would enjoy browsing that shop -- but then most of us broads enjoying browsing wherever we are!
Nice capture with the dog trainers Jack. Beautiful set of images of the crafts center.
Love the dog training! I bet you have picked up a few trinkets on your trip, Jack.
West Coast Guide Dogs for the Blind is a much loved institution doing great work.
Much as I limit my souvenirs when traveling, I think I'd find Mandrogi irresistible. (Uhm...do they have a website?)
That's a stretch!
hey, check me out 6/19 and 20.
SURPRISE!
Great shot of the Guide Dog in training ... they really are incredible. Hope you are enjoying your touring Jack.

Brilliant work the dog trainers do, well captured here Jack..Enjoying your Russian 'almost' comparisons :)
I like both your streetshot and the Russian art-craft-images.
