careers/jobs - is yours dog-related?

• careers/jobs - is yours dog-related? dawn Posted : 6/17/2006 4:26:57 PM Just wondering how many people out there make a living doing something dog-related or working for a dog-related company? If so what do you do?   I work at a specialty dog store, making natural dog biscuits. The store also sells high-quality foods and accessories, and we have a hiking program.

• ron2 Posted : 6/18/2006 12:30:47 PM I wish I could be in a pet or animal related job. Being an ACO would be tough for me, to avoid dispensing justice on abusers. OTOH, if I had the time, I could see volunteering at a shelter, if I had the strength of Amy. Or the strength and resources to foster, as does Glenda. However, being a wildlife researcher centering on wild canids would be excellent. Running with the wolves ...   0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Katie M. Posted : 6/18/2006 12:42:49 PM I was a vet tech for 13 yrs, but found that I had less time for my animals, working 10-12 hr days plus weekends and holidays.  I now work in Quality Assurance for a human medical device manufacturer.  I make more money, and have more time for my dogs, although I do miss working in the field.  I do hope to some day be able to afford my own business - a performance dog supply store. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• tacran Posted : 6/18/2006 6:53:16 PM Ron, you sound like my husband.  He's always impressed with the work that the ASPCA officers do, yet he always says, "If I had that job, I'd be fired for beating the abuser to death on the spot."  He'd be like a vigilante, so it's good he isn't a ACO!  He also says he wishes he could have space, money and time to rescue/foster dozens of dogs, or to have a wildlife rehab place.  As for wolves, to live among them would be his dream life I think!  Hey, aren't you an electrician and former military?  So is my husband!  Cut from the same cloth, I guess! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Alice Posted : 6/18/2006 9:32:29 PM Can I ask what a Vet Tech does in America? I have a feeling the job description may be different from Vet Techs in Australia. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
