question on animal careers?
Dog training,dog grooming career questions? hey i like to understand more about dog training. im thinking of applying school online for dog training, but is it any good? i love animals and would like to have a career involving them. Is it a good idea going full time? or part-time? is it really like a hobby thing or you can make a living out of it? i was thinking of opening a business of dog training and grooming center. possibly adding pet supplies(but i dont know yet) so i just wanna know if this is a good career path. and if you make enough to live. thanks in advance :-D I live in connecticut so i dont know how much of a demand this career can be.

- grooming is always in demand, so are vet techs
- Petco is a good place to start if you are interested in becoming an animal groomer. Their grooming program teaches you all you need to know to become one. Check out their website to learn more. www.petco.com Also if you want to do dog training really research the school that you are interested in. I went to a job interview for a online dog training school and they seemed pretty good. you basically signed up and they sent you the books and materials and you did everything online. I think it is a two year program and the first year basically is learning about the job and the second is actually an internship. They will match you up with trainers in your area and you do hands on training with them. They can also give you info on what kinds of jobs you can get into with a degree and so on. www.animalbehaviorcollege.com But the biggest need is for vet techs. They make pretty good money but I think you need a little more experience and education for that. Look into community colleges in your neighborhood or even technical schools. I'm sure if you do enought research you will find what really fits with you. Good luck with your search!
