Well, the new school is in a town about 3 miles away. There is a school bus which drops off the children at the village each afternoon, but it stops at the main road...so getting him to meet the child there instead isn't such a good idea.
I think his people are going to have to think harder about fences. Or be willing to put him on the lead and walk him to meet the school bus every day. But it's amazing how many people don't do things like that any more. And if they did, they would have to make their garden like Fort Knox. If he started getting out on his own, the main road isn't a good place for him to hang out.
There are elements of this which remind me of Hachi-Ko, the Japanese dog who went to the train station every day at 5pm for ten years after his caretaker passed away. He remained faithful and true and never forgot where, and at what time, they always used to meet.
