Yet despite all the public, Henry stirs up no envy or resentment among the 2000 students in fact, they all adore him.The dog, who first arrived six months ago, is super dog, who has improved students' behaviour andencouraged more students to focus on their academic achievement.It was Andrew's teacher, Wendy Brown and the school counsellor, Julie Smart, who first proposedbuying school dog.
