Ryan, dog walking - WF1 Wakefield

I am a recent graduate of the University of Salford. I studied Bsc Wildlife and Practical Conservation and received a Second Class Hons Division One.

I have a Level 3 Advanced Technical Extended Diploma – Animal Management (DDDM) from Askham Bryan College.

During my time at college I had the opportunity to undertake work placements at two animal boarding and rescue establishments for a range of small animals including dogs, cats, and other small mammals.

My responsibilities in these placements included: cleaning and disinfecting enclosures, answering calls from customers, filling in paperwork, ensuring data bases were up to date, performing visual health checks, administering medication to animals (both oral and injection), dog walking, feeding animals, assisting with dog grooming, and working to help rehabilitate rescue animals.

I worked with the college's collection of animals which included birds, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals. My responsibilities included visual health checks, spot cleans, full cleans, and feeding.
