At Dogtopia Jobs in Wisconsin (NOW HIRING)

You love dogs.
I don’t mean you “like dogs” or feel that dogs are “fine, I guess.” No, I mean you LOVE dogs. To you, dogs are the greatest things in the world. You probably like most dogs better than you like most people. You’ve said the phrase “Can I pet your dog?” to more strangers than you could possibly count.
You believe that dogs make life better.
Are you looking to begin a new career involving dogs? Are you ready to learn more about body language, play styles and dog behavior? Are you thinking about going to Vet Tech or Vet assistant school? If you answered yes to any of these, then this is the job for you!
