Many states have laws that protect the trainer from a school during
the official training time too.  I hope companies and schools will
allow the dogs to be there while with the puppy raisers so the dogs
are well socialized.  I changed from working with older people to
working in a school district while I had my 4th dog.  He could not
handle the stress of all of those students so I had to retire him.  My
current dog was raised by a pre teen and does very well with students.
Even so, travelling between bells still makes her very nervous.
