Impressed, Dorothy Eustis penned an article for The Saturday Evening Post, published on November 5, 1927. Among the countless requests for guide dogs she received in response, it was a letter from Morris Frank, a 20-year-old blind man from Nashville, Tennessee, that moved her to take action, because of his intention to use the trained dog to spread awareness for the cause and eventually establish a school to help people through the training of guide dogs in the United States.
