A Dog's Fate in two Different Acts
When I began writing the Canine Career Path column, my research found countless, rewarding occupations dedicated to preserving and continuing the lives of dogs. Both noble and virtuous, the stories of these dog friendly workers continually left me feeling inspired. However, for June's column I have decided to separate my story into the good and not so good areas of a Canine Career Path.

PROFESSIONAL DOG WALKER: A Break From The 9-5 World
Travel to any city in the world and yes, there are the usual sights to visit and see. However, one sight that has become more frequent over the years is the professional dog walker. He is often found walking at a great pace following a brood of one dog to six, the maximum according to the Professional Dog Walker rules. As they stride down sidewalks and ramble through parks it is often hard to tell exactly who is getting the most out of the walk.

The Literary Dog Writer
Dogs have long been muses for many a writer, whether in poetry, novel, song or screenplay form. Throughout history this recurring theme has been celebrated on paper by some of the greatest philosophers and writers. The Dog Writer's job is to show just how dogs inspire and at the same time attempt to de-mystify the bond between dogs and people. This is a Canine Career Path unlike any others, exceptionally personal and complex, since the use of the dog in literature is often thought to be symbolic of our own human circumstances, both bad and good.

Dogs Have Jobs Too
In researching Canine Career Paths I found that canine careers are not only for humans. While many dogs are left to their fate in animal shelters, some choose and are chosen for various careers. Below you will find just a few of these dogs and the amazing jobs they perform, which shows that they were not born to be ordinary dogs. Their attention to duty goes far beyond the standard comfort and joy they give us as domestic pets.

Veterinary Assistant
The Veterinary Assistant is an important part of the team at an animal hospital. He or she works with the veterinarian and the vet techs to help the sick and injured animals, as well as the animals coming in for check ups and vaccinations. The veterinary assistant can be compared to the licensed practical nurses in your doctor’s office.
