Pros

It's a tax free pay check as long as you stay out of the U.S. for 330 days of the tax year.

Cons

So many "cons". Treatment of dogs is at the top of my list, if the dogs are not assigned they are "forgotten" and given the least amount of care. So many dogs I've seen were emaciated, and neglected. You will sleep in a tent, and won't have much privacy. They also don't provide internet access. We actually paid out of pocket for our own.

Pros

Decent starting pay and it increases every year and if you get promoted. They train you very well They pay for your K9 medical bills and food

Cons

Pay from other K9 companies are better but you will be working in many different areas instead of one site so it's a lot of back and forth

Pros

Great entry level career for working with canines. Supportive management where they can help.

Cons

Contract work heavily dictates your QOL. Management can't always help. Outside vendors interfere with duties.
