What Is The Best Approach To Dog Training?

Recommended Answer:
Why not volunteer with an animal rescue centre?
In England (sorry, not sure where you are!) the RSPCA are always looking for people to help out, a lot of dog walking, cleaning kennels, interacting with the animals, etc.
I volunteered with them for a few years when I was 17 and I loved it, I only did it every 2 weeks due to other commitments, but it was really nice to know I was giving the animals something they didn't have prior to being rescued.

Using Dog Training Collars to Train Your Dog

• Unfortunately you are much too young to open a doggy day care, it would require a permit from the area where you live, lots of liability insurance, health inspections, etc.
  
  Have you considered doing some volunteer work at one of the shelters? They have a great need as the more people there working with the dogs the sooner they become socialized enough to be placed in new forever homes.


• Maybe you could join/ask a 4H club and ask them. I know i was in one and i have alot of dog handling books and training books. But maybe a poster to advertise your 'daycare' or you could go around asking your neighbors.


• Certainly look into volunteering. It is very rewarding and you get the chance to scope the exact breed that you'll want when you're older and can have one. Good luck.


• If your not allowed to have dogs, then there is no way you will be able to have a doggy daycare.
  
  Offer to help out at your local animal shelter.
