I'm working my way up the job ladder at the pet resort I work at. Currently I'm a pet guardian and take care of all the dogs.Eventually I will run the place. Oh yes, I will. And yes, my dogs get to go to work with me every day and they love it. Sawyer has even tried to jump out of the window a few times he's so excited to be there!
I look after a boarding kennel and work at my Sister's grooming facility. I am just starting to get interested in grooming and I am slowly learning. Currently I will only "groom" double coated breeds that require no clip off's 
My dogs do not enjoy coming to work with me at the boarding kennel As soon as they see the boarding kennel they will not get out of the truck...anti social little things. The boarding kennel has a huge 1 acre compound which is all grass and trees and quite beautiful...I try putting my dogs out with the owners Newf's...my dogs sit at the fence huddled in a corner staring at the kennel where I am working. I tend to leave them at home as they are much happier and content.
The Newf's do enjoy going to the grooming facility though..they stay and lay at our feet and love the attention.

I am a senior loan officer for a mortgage company. As of this year I have been able to work out of my house the majority of the time. However that now entails doing stuff for my husbands company. But I get to spend time with the dogs and my granddaughter. I feel pretty fortunate to be able to do this.
Hello all.......
Hi im Dan
I am brand spanking new to the site, i am not sure how to start a new topic so bear with me. I have a question, i have always loved dogs but never been in the right envoirement to have one. Now i am in a house in a small town so i have started looking and researching breeds. I have spotted a cute little guy in a pound, a spanial mix perfect size for my house and yard. I have emailed
the pound on info on him (milo) still waiting for a response.
Has, does anyone have a spanial is there anything i should look for to ensure
he is not a troubled dog. He is 2 years old
Thank you
Dan

Hi Dan,
To get a answer to this question, I suggest you post it in a section of the forum that better relates to this topic. You are simply more likely to get people to see this that can answer your question. The part of the forum you are in is for "off topic" stuff.
Moderators, can this possibly be moved to a more appropriate thread so that Dano can get a answer?
Danke

police dog handler or RAF dog handler or ARMY dog handler. i career im looking at at the moment!
just to give you some info:
if all you want to do is work with a dog straight away, the RAF is the best. after your training you will be teamed with a dog and working.
the police needs you to pass a 2 year standard police probation period, in which you will be a normal police officer, on the beat etc. after the 2 years you can specialise in a unit. e.g. dog handling unit, firearms squad,etc.
the ARMY needs you to be an ARMY police man for 4 years,then you can specialise.
im in the UK btw.

the only one you have to study for is to join the ARMY police force, and then after the 4 years you can specialise. you just need
Education Standard:
GCSE grade C or above in English, Maths and a good level of secondary education with particular emphasis on communication skills. Neat, legible handwriting and good spelling. Numeracy skills must be of a good standard.
otherwise they teach you everything you need one you join.
the police and RAF police forces only need you to pass their tests, the police need you to pass a numeracy test and english test, meaning you need to be able to write well and speak it well. then you just have to pass the medical, physical etc test,just like the rest of them.
so yackaduck there isnt exactly much studying in school to be done, just the tests they need you to pass.
are you thinking of joining? are you in the UK?
the thing is that the 3 are very different jobs, im sure can imagine.
a police dog handler would be on the beat, and go to a crime for backup or to track someone, things like that.
a RAF police dog handler would mean that you guard the base that you are stationed at at night time. the aim is anti-terrorism. they need the dogs to make sure no one gets into the base and does something to the planes, etc. so they would mainly protrolling (sp) the area, or guarding something.
was there a reason you asked? if you want any info ill help you as much as i can from what i know.
an ARMY police dog handler i think, (dont take this part 100% as i havent looked into this one as much due to the 4 year wait untill you can become a dog handler) would be the same as a police dog handler but involved in the armys missions etc.

i get in the car alot, once i counted 14 times in one day..i am on 24 hour duty to mom, hyia and Aaron..with a little mypy thrown in..Does that job have a title?
in between i try to paint rabbits and frogs..turtles and cats
between that i try to do "my" art..photos and sketches is about as far as i can get, and that is a dirty rotten shame
so that's what i do
mostly i try to get my chores done so i can go to bed
puppdog..when i was going thru my emt and perimedic we held our classes upstairs..and the canine unit held theirs below.
I use to watch them doing scenerios and think..i am so in the wrong place for me..i should be down there..i want to be down there.
i thought of going into the police world when i found myself a single parent..and there in lies the reason i couldn't..single parent..if anything happened to me it their lives were over..dad wasn't a good place to be. I did think wouldn't that chap the ex's rear end if i became a police woman? that alone was a good reason to consider the profession.
