Dog Health Questions: Dog majors............?

What are some dog or animal majors. Like, I'm having a hard time finding the degree titles, specifically for dog training. But I know there might be other things, I just don't know what they are called. Like is there such a thing as a major in dog training or animal majors in general? Please help! Websites will be useful too.

Recommended Answer:
None. You have to go to a school that specializes in that like DBU.

  • animal related fields
    animal behavior colleges teaches you to be a dog trainer
    animal science major there are specializations inside of that including parks and wildlife
    ag major related with all animals not just dogs and could put you into a pet nutrition job
    zoology: masters field work or simple work in the zoo's or with rehabilitation or research centers. parks and wildlife because this requires a major in wildlife bio and animal science which can actually make a very stable job if you have the majors underneath it.

  • Zoology majors are very rare nowadays, and you're much better off getting a degree in biology if you want to work in zoos or aquariums. If you want to work with dogs, you may need to look into specialty schools that offer certificates in dog training, dog psychology, etc.

  • I don't think there are any college level classes like that. There are specialty schools for dog training. The National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors would be a good place to start. See what classes and seminars they recommend.

  • As in a university degree? Check with the university's science department. Most degrees are in the physical science of animals but there may be an animal behavioral science degree. Different universities offer different degree majors.

  • Vetinary Medicine

  • Maybe Vet Technicians?

  • African American studies?
