CHINA-SHANGHAI-FEATURE-SEEING EYE DOG (CN)
(110406) -- SHANGHAI, April 6, 2011 (Xinhua) -- Xie Danling clothes up her seeing eye dog Yile in Shanghai, east China, March 27, 2011. Yile is a well-trained seeing eye dog 26-year-old Xie Danling lived with since last November. After the period of matching up with its master in the first two months, Yile has become an important member of Xie's family and indispensable part of her life. In Xie's daily life, Yile reminds its master of steps, red and green lights, or any obstacles on the road whenever they are walking out; Yile licks Xie's tears and leans close to her, which is its own way to condole its master, whenever Xie is sad for some reason; Yile never indulges itself in food and only eats with Xie's permission.
"I thought that a seeing eye dog was no more than a tool in the first place, but now I find I can't live without Yile. My heart has been filled with her!" said Xie Danling.
Though being important to the blind persons, seeing eye dogs are still not well accepted by mass in Chinese society. Seeing eye dogs were not allowed to enter certain supermarkets, restaurants and shuttle buses with their blind masters, Xie Danling told Xinhua reporters. In her opinion, people should pay more understanding and tolerance to those dogs which contribute their values to human beings.
Xie Danling and her husband are building a volunteer worker organization which is aimed to help the disabled devote themselves to public services. In their recent plan, they will soon organize a group of massagists consisted of blind persons and college students to give aged people free massage service in communities. (Xinhua/Pei Xin) (zn)

A guide dog training variety has new aid for preparing its pups for the outside world — remote controlled squirrels.
The new canine training device is a stuffed toy squirrel strapped to a remotely operated model car.
When a dog and its handler are out walking, a member of staff activates the squirrel and zooms it across the mutt’s path.
The dog is then training to ignore the distraction and carry ointment its route.
The move is designed to help future guide dogs resist one of the canine world’s most chaotic distractions.
A poll for UK organisation Guide Dogs which commissioned the bot, showed that 35% of everyday pups chase squirrels and 60% of dog owners admitting their pet could never hack it as a guide dog.
Guide Dogs training and behaviour expert Karen Brady said the aim is get dogs so used to chaos that it becomes background noise.
She explained that one moment of lost focus could endanger both the dog and its user.
OPS: A guide dog in training in London being taught to ignore the remote controlled squirrel.

Emma hat 'nen Blindenhund: Emma Norman aus Biggleswade hat die ZSD Augenerkrankung und ist auf ihren Assistenzhund Archie angewiesen
SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis!
WORDS BYLINE: Deborah Cicurel
She was just a normal kid, running around with her friends and having fun dancing - until a devastating diagnosis.
When Emma Norman was six her parents noticed her squinting at the TV but they didn’t think too much of it.
However, Emma, now 33, would soon find out that she had Cone Rod Dystrophy and would eventually go blind.
Emma, a Pilates and meditation breathwork instructor from London, living in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, believes the stereotypes around blindness made accepting her diagnosis even harder — and she wants to challenge outdated ideas around sight loss.
“Life before my diagnosis felt pretty normal,” she remembers.
“I was just like any other kid—running around with friends, dancing around to my favourite TV shows and records. I even skipped crawling and went straight to walking, and I was reading and talking from a very young age, so nobody noticed anything unusual.
“To me, everything seemed fine because that was just my normal. It wasn’t until my parents started picking up on little things—like me squinting at the TV or struggling to see animals at the zoo when they pointed them out—that they became curious.
“At first, they thought I was just being cheeky, pretending not to see things, but when I kept squinting at the TV, they decided to take me to the optician. They assumed I was probably just short-sighted and needed glasses.
“In my early years at school, I only needed to sit closer to the board, but beyond that, I didn’t notice anything different. I guess what I saw—how I saw—was just my normal.
“When I first started squinting, my parents thought I probably just needed glasses for short-sightedness, like the other kids in my class.
“The optician gave me my first pair of multi-coloured glasses in the meantime while they arranged for the doctors to refer me to Moorfields Eye Hospital, as they could tell something more was going on.
