Dog Walking
I have many jobs, but one that I like in particular is dog walking. I love animals so much, so this job doesn't seem so much like a job, as it does just something I would do for fun on an everyday basis. I walk my neighbor's dogs all the time, and I also get paid for doing it.
My neighbor has four dogs, and they're all extremely sweet. Even though this job is fun, I also have to take it very serious at times. This job has taught me a lot about responsibility, and taking control of my actions. Like for example, one time my neighbor's dog Buddy ran away while, I was trying to get control of all the other dogs. I started to panic as soon I thought about how mad my neighbor would be if she would have found out about Buddy running away, but somehow I still remained to keep calm. I immediately started to search everywhere for him, and after 2 hours of looking everywhere for him; I finally found him at a park. I had learned a really important lesson that day, and that lesson was that any job anyone has taken some seriousness out of that person in order for that job to be done right sometimes.
This job has a lot of responsibility that needs to go into it, as well as the seriousness it takes in order to be a dog walker. I have learned from this job that I need to be alert while walking the dogs, I need to be able to clean up any messes or damages that the dogs might do, but most importantly I have learned that no matter what happens in this job, I need to take

Of all the jobs I have had in my life one sticks in my head more than the rest. This job not only taught me discipline and punctuality, but it also taught me that some people are completely stupid and negligent of their children and themselves. During the normal work day, which lasted from noon until eight at night, I would sometime see over two hundred people in a day. Each of these people would put their lives into my hand to watch and protect from the 225,000 gallon danger that surrounded each one of them. I would literally guard their life.
I have been a part of a band program since I was in fifth grade through junior year, so I know how to work in a team.While in the band program I worked with the community a lot,from marching in parades to fundraising.I also have learned the importance of being on time and the importance to sticking to commitments that have been made from this program and my part time job where I worked in stocking and customer service. I have younger siblings so I have learned to put others before myself since I was always babysitting them because my parents worked a lot.I’ve also had at least one pet ever since I was born so I know how to prioritize my time between school ,time to myself,and time for my pets.I also have developed empathy from these animals
Though I have never had a real job, I have accumulated work experience in a different way. Most days I must complete chores around the house, such as doing the dishes, cleaning the bathroom, or stacking firewood. I also cut my dad’s hair and mow my grandparents’ lawn. Doing these tasks has taught me not to complain but rather to stay positive no matter the circumstance.
I have been a pet sitter since I was in seventh grade. I watched my friend's 2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 hamsters when they were on vacation for 2 weeks in north carolina. I loved being alone with their animals. I feel it helped me get to know animals on a personal level which had me searching for careers in the animal field. I have 3 dogs myself and they have helped me emotionally. I was in a deep depression
For years the dogs have to practise to help also it can take them a while to find a person to take care of. Service dogs are to help people, who have got hurt and who need help.
Another reason that this program is a bad idea is because some dogs make lots of noise, they might bark at your coworker or whine at you while you’re working because they need lots of care. Dogs would need exercise, water, food, and attention, caring for their needs at
All service animals must go through a period of training to ensure that they are ready for the task of continuously being in a public setting with large crowds of people. These dogs are well respected and often help handlers with more than just their disorder. As commented by Esnayra, “An employer does not have to tolerate a dog that is not appropriately trained.” Esnayra also firmly states her beliefs through the article on how service animals must be cared for properly and not treated as much as a pet as they should someone who works for you.
Although it would be nice for dog owners to bring their pet to work with them sounds like a good idea some employees might be alergic to the dogs. In addition to being alergic some employees could have had past experiences with a dog, like being bitten or chased by one and may be anxious around dogs. Furthurmore, dogs are usually very unsanitary and could spread bacteria or diseases throughout the workplace just by licking.
Curious children and adults try to distract or play with working dogs on duty because they may not be fully aware of the situation. The solution to this issue could be as simple as including a chapter about service dogs in public school’s health education courses. Although these animals are highly trained, temptations can still prove to be a major distraction, moving the focus off the handler and onto their surroundings. These experiences can be difficult for handlers to deal with as they are trying to live life as normally as they can.

My project was to build three park benches for the Pets Alive dog walk area. This is where volunteers can walk the dogs and give them much needed out of kennel time. The volunteers/dog walkers can now sit and rest on the benches that me and my crew built and enjoy a more leisurely experience outside with the dogs.
I wanted another friend to hang out with, since my brother got boring sometimes, so I talked my family into getting a dog. We looked at our local pet shelter. Right when I walked in I walked over to a dachshund (She was the quietest dog in the shelter… little did my family know *eye roll). A week later the dachshund was home with the new name Libby (Thinking back on it, we should have named her Cleopatra since she looks like someone applied heavy eyeliner all over her eyes). Libby definitely tricked us with her shy personality at the pound. She is a force to be reckoned with, but I love her. Libby has little dog syndrome. She picks fights with the biggest and baddest, semi trucks. The tiny beast also finds it necessary to escort out all of our visitors to our property line (She runs on the side of the road barking until after the car passes the property line. My family is still not sure how she knows where our property line is… but she has mastered it). Do not get me wrong, Libby is a lover, and clingy lover at that. Every night I fall asleep she has always burrowed under the covers right next to my feet. My little fighter has taught me to stand my ground, no matter how tough the opponent is. This has helped me become successful in many of my academics and athletics in high school. This lesson will also be very
Imagine you are a cute little puppy, you have luxurious fur and seamlessly floppy ears; you live in a nice house with a lovely family and live a very happy life. Your owners take you on nice long walks and are overall in great shape; every dog deserves to be in good health. Unfortunately not every dog gets the opportunity to go on a nice brisk walk often, sometimes not at all. Our goal is to challenge this; we want to persuade people to agree to learn about the dog-walking program offered at the Humane Society of Southern Arizona. We believe this cause is an imperative cause because individuals who are well informed are more likely to volunteer; in all honestly who doesn’t love a cuddly pup! We chose the dog-walking program opposed to just
It's really not easy being in that position, handling the deceased, but we have to be there for the families as comfort and treat their pet as one of our own.
I support the first letter of bringing your dog to work program. I support this letter because I am a dog owner and after i nice playful time with my dog I feel more relaxed. Many humans such as myself struggle with deadlines, because most of us are worn out. There are many people that love their dogs more than anything. I for one have to agree with this we need to stop running to deadlines we need to slow down and actually think about whats important in life. I dont like leaving my dog at home because hes up there in age and he's has no one to take care of him. If i could bring him to work and school so I know hes not in pain or lonely I would. I would do way better at work and school because I would have my best friend next to me all the
