Hi, 
I will be having my interview for my guide dog school in a couple of weeks. I have a new boss, and when he found out that I was looking into getting a service dog, he said I could put him in the back stair way. that is a fire exit and the fire department would give them a big fine if they came in and found a dog crated in the back. The best place is right outside the door to the laundry room where I do much of my work, I would pass the dog many times in the day, plus I can keep track of what is going on. I know the big problem with that spot is that it is in clear view of the public, in fact if someone wanted to they could go up to the crate. I get it, the safety thing and all, and that even if I put a nice cover over the crate, it will not be in keeping with how they run things. I do believe that fore the most part everyone would leave the dog along, but I guess all's you need is one dummy and everything is turned upside down. 
I feel I should talk to the gal when she comes to do the interview, and see what she has to say, but I could blow all my chances of getting a dog because of it. 
I just don't know how to do this.
