These are dogs that hopefully will be used as service dogs. For rescues, helping the handicapped or socializing dogs for senior adoption. These dogs come from a variety of places from breeders to rescues.

Decide which area of dog training you want to specialize in. There are different types of dogs you can work with such as rescue dogs, service dogs, and search dogs. Ideally, you should go for the one you find most interesting since you are likely to be in the career in the long term, it is important that you enjoy the niche you choose.

Most of your work will be volunteer. But when handling a career dog in training, you will also have to interact with the dog's organization in order to assist them on how to best train the dog themselves as well as maintain its discipline.

The better your people skills, the better the more “employable” you are or the more your business can thrive. Avoid jargon and practice the use of easy to understand language.

Find mentors - When starting, you can volunteer your services at an established dog training firm. This could be as little as helping clean the kennels.

After some time you can request to participate in training the dogs even if it is just observation. Working with a reputable trainer gives your resume the needed weight that will help launch your career.

Practical skills are important when handling a career dog in training. However, academic credentials can give you an edge over other applicants when looking to help these organizations. You could enroll for a professional course in dog training. However, there is no standard training program.
