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:
-
Is 10h/week a realistic amount of time to invest into training the GSD and complete the KPA tasks?
-
Is it worth going through this program in 2026, or other methods out there make more sense?
