Getting into dog training ?
I have been thinking for a while now about dog training, im 15 and will soon be thinkin about college etc…
and i would love to train small dogs, i have the abilityand patience for this type of thing, howvever i just don’t know where to start,
any help please?
go to college for biology, specialize in animals. not necessarily pre-vet, although that’d be a great starting point.
I have a BS in Biology and though my field of study was pre-medicine, I did enjoy taking a few biology electives about animals. I took “comparative vertebrate anatomy” but my favorite one, and most pertinent to your interests, was a course called “Animal Behavior”.
If you’re that into it, go on amazon.com and get yourself an animal behavior, or canine behavior textbook and start teaching yourself.
Also, ask a petco or petsmart trainer, or a local dog trainer to shadow him/her. sort of become an Apprentice to someone who trains dogs…. they can teach you more than any college course could!
