Hi Carol

Thanks for your suggestion. I already volunteer at my local animal sanctuary, but the idea of asking the training practices is one I have never thought about, so I will give it a go. Thank you

Have you thought about asking your local catteries/kennels/rescues/RSPCA if they can offer you any voluntary work or even the training practices you have applied to in the meantime?

I know it's not always possible but I think it helps to show you are enthusiastic & willing!

Good luck :)
