I wish I could bring Max to school. I would just let him run around the classroom. It's not like he would be
that much of a distraction... haha. I brought him once to a cross country meeting and no one was listening to the coach because they were saying how cute he was! Silly little guy.
Three hours is not a lot at all! Max is alone for 3-5 hours while I'm at school depending on the day and then he gets a 2 1/2 hour break when I come home but then I have to go to soccer again for two more hours

. I wish I could bring him everywhere and I hope I get a job where I can bring him.
Oh yeah, and I would bring the play pen since he is a puppy and you don't want him having accidents everywhere!
