It was the German pollice in the dog.   I think they stopped using them 
because of this very thing.  They are certainly intelligent, but too 
temperamental.  This was a long time ago.

I would question the wisdom of any school letting a dog out into everyday

school certainly would cull such a dog out.  It is just too unsafe for the
dog's person otherwise.
