I'd have to agree with you, Buddy. I think  people use their dogs to/from 
the center and then they have a designated area for them to be at the 
center. I'm sure you can take breaks and take them out to relieve. I'm not 
really sure why they're not allowed in the classes (with the exception of 
travel, of course)... Cooking, Braille, etc doesn't require  travel skills. 
Just my opinion.
