Debating about joining the Karen Pryor Academy or not

I have been house sitting for some clients for a while now. One of my clients recently told me she will help me pay for KPA if I am willing to commit and train her 10-month old German Shepherd.

I think this is an awesome opportunity, and I am happy she trusts me enough to offer this. However, I have a full time job completely unrelated to dogs. I work from home 3 days a week, I never have to work overtime, but it's still a full time job.

I do want to make the dog training career my primary career in the future. I know I will have to work harder to do two demanding things at the same time, so here I am asking people who probably have a better insight on this than me.

Questions I have:

  1. Is 10h/week a realistic amount of time to invest into training the GSD and complete the KPA tasks?

  2. Is it worth going through this program in 2026, or other methods out there make more sense?
