Some Kind of “Dog Classes” for Teens….?

Question by nickkelly4dogs: Some kind of “dog classes” for teens….?
I really need something to do for the summer and since I really love dogs, I thought that maybe I could learn more about them. Whether, it’s a doggy grooming class, training class, as long as it’s for teens or for kids then it’s fine. Also, if anyone knows where a 14 year old can get a job dealing with dogs (grooming, daycare, etc)…then it would be greatly appreciated….thanks so much!

Best answer:

local dog shelter

Answer by Kiki
You can try your local shelter. However, most won’t accept anyone below 18, or at least 16. I want to do something with dogs too, but I’m still too young too.
Maybe you could ask neighbors or friends if you could walk/pet sit their dog.
Good luck! And try your local shelter. Or maybe start a dog walking business.
