The question you left on my blog:
"I'm confused! Toby has allergies and that's why he can't be a service dog? Why? Isn't there medicine for it? Oh, wait, he can be a service dog - any dog can be a service dog - what can't he do? The "program"?"
I'll try to answer it!
Yes it all is very confusing, but to be a guide dog (which is what he was in training for since he was born) he has to be in the best of shape - and unless the allergies are a little side issue he will get put out. In this case (I have no idea what he's allergic to) he had very severe allergies - which I don't know if he's taken medication - as I don't ever get much info from the school!
There is other lines of work he could possibly do - he may be able to be a helping to for a veteran or something. But he wouldn't be putting a blind person's life in risk if he made a mistake due to allergies (they can side track him very easily).
Hope this helps! The school will put the dog to the best use for there health and skill - if Toby ends up not being a perfect match for the gifted canine program (being a service dog) then he will be adopted out as a pet. In the next 3-4 week I should be hearing something.
This whole program can be confusing sometimes - hope you somewhat understand what I just tried to explain, let me know if you have any other questions!
