Question asked me about my Service Dog

This is a good one, I was at the local Wal-mart parking lot and had my Service Dog. After putting the items I bought in the car, someone saw me with him and asked about my Seeing Eye Dog, and am I blind. I even had people ask me that after I let the dog in the back and got into the drivers seat.

Just tell them, he drives from the back seat. It's easier to see out the back window.

I guess many people don't understand that a service dog can also be considered a companion animal for those on disability. When I worked at an apartment complex for the elderly and disabled, we had many of them there and they were treated just like the service dogs for the blind as well.
