What kind of job would you choose if you wanted to be around a lot of animals?

[wolflady]

Ooooh!! A pet bed n' breakfast sounds like such a neat idea!!! I'd go!
For me I'm lucky enough to have been able to take part in a "job" where I am around animals with the volunteering at the Cat rescue, and the wildlife rehabilitation and rescue center here in Silicon Valley!! My dream job, though, would be working full time at Wolf Park (www.wolfpark.org) where I did volunteer work while I was in college (or any other wolf education center). There is a lady, Karin, that flys in from Germany every year to be "wolf mom". How cool is that???!! That's the job I would like

Being a dog trainer and groomer would be fun too. A veterinarian is a good choice, but I don't think I could handle the surgury portion of that job! But I could assist or be the reception person!! LOL

I agree WolfLady, i think working at WolfPark would be one of the coolist jobs ever. if that isn't a dream job, i can't imagine what would be. (ok, actually running my own wolf rehab program or santuary would top the list.)

If I ever go to America I can work for you guys! I wouldn't mind being a vet's assistant, I'm not squeamish or scared of anything, except perhaps snakes...

Hey If i could choose a job to be around animals it would be , probably a vet so.......... but ny ways

I would love to do a Pet Day Care.

For "Pet Parents" who are away all day. I have seen quite a few around and they seem to do fairly well.

I would also love to have a Pet Therapy Centre. Massages and relaxtion type things for pets.

I have a yellow lad named Amber. Near the end, she was filled with cancer and in so much pain. I would sit with her and massage neck and her paws. I know it sounds flaky but she loved it and it made me feel good to help her.

I would love to be a vetranarian!! Like if I knew how to be a vet I would offer to help take care of the dogs at the animal shelter!!
And like dogFan it would be fun start a doggie hotel!! Hey she and I could open a

Openning an Animal Hotel, Pet Sitting Club, Pet Daycare center and all those cool stuff sounds great. I know I can never be a veternarian or anthing to give, but I love animals, and I hoep to find a job where my baby (Chika, Lhasa Poodle Mix) can be with me or work with me. I love taking care of pets, and one of my dream is to have this huge land and have different types of pets running around, if not a Sanctuary area for them.

I already get to work with cute a few animals as I am a pet sitter.

I would LOOOOVE to work at the San Diego ZOO - it's the greatest, and there are so many wonderful animals and people who work there. I've had the pleasure of meeting the Director a few times, and you've never met a more sincere or caring person. I love our ZOO, and any kind of work there would be fine. Just look at all the animal company I'd have!!!!!!!
If you ever come to visit this city, you've GOT to go to the ZOO!!! You'll have the best memories ever!!
Lot's of !!! in this post, but it really is a great place -
P.S. Check out their webpage, it has some great stuff:www.sandiegozoo.org

When I tell people this, them probably think I'm weird, but I'm doing it for the animals!

I really want to work for the ASPCA (American Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals), when I grow up!

[sammi]

Since this is a deam that won't be happen for me - I'll dream big!
I would like to be the director of housing in a very large city and I would over see that people with pets have plenty of housing to pick from. This would cover Nursing Homes/Senior housing so elderly would have no worry about having their pet live with them. I would want it easy too - private runs for each apt. security around the clock for the pets protection ( no dog nabbing here or pets getting away) and owner peace of mind! Nursing homes/ Sr. housing would have around the clock STAFF for taking the pets out if the owner is not in health to do so (that is a dream!!!).

[krazyaboutkatz]

I would either be a Vet or a vetrinarian technician. I would love to be able to help sick or injured animals.
