i think if i had to choose i would work in the show ring judging dogs you see so many great examples of the breeds their! i would have to choose specialization in working breeds because i favor them the most
Sighthounds: lol i dont mid you adding that its a carrier you would enjoy in the animal field so it works!

honestly i would love to see a field trial!
 
I would start an animal rescue foundation or shelter in a city or area that doesn't have access to one. I would want to specialize in providing and finding homes for Ex-Racer Greyhounds, and also other dogs that are in need of help, and have a hard time finding homes. I mean, not like I would reject a healthy purebred, but I would feel happier to find a home for a rescue, or un-loved mutt. I always feel good to adopt a rescue dog from a shelter, and rarely find myself researching breeders. I love dogs, and always have so that job would fully satisfy me. I would have a hard time though, seeing the dogs go, and would end up owning 10 of my own! I'd love to open my heart to dogs everywhere, and hope that others will do the same. I've done some research before about this career, but really don't have the available time or extensive money to start this up. When I win the lottery, it will be the first thing on my list! It would be a NO kill shelter of course!

I would love to own a 5 star boarding kennel that let owners feel safe when they went away
 
My dream dog job would be training dogs with a real trainer like Greekman.

I have been fortunate enough though to train dogs for my own pleasure with someone who worked with Bill Koheler for many many many years.
 
I think I'd like to be retired from the dog "business"... and instead, have a pack of coon hounds that I take out every night. Oh...and a nice bottle of the "good stuff' to keep me warm.

I can't see judging "working breeds" that aren't bred to "work". That's kinda like going to a NASCAR race, and determining the winner by who has the best paint job.
 
If money was no object, I would start my own pit bull or senior dog rescue. Perhaps even a sanctuary for FeLV+ cats.

Realistically, I am in school to become a dog trainer. I also got my Canine First Aid certification through the Red Cross. I hope to start a business within the next couple of years of dog training/pet sitting.
 
I think it would have to be something in either collies only agility club or something or collies in work. Abbs grandfather won world champ at his work so I think I'd put Abbie in something similar!
 
I use to train German Shepherds for 20 years then I started to volunteer at the local shelter and now I train the shelter dogs to get them ready for adoption.I have always loved doing this
