Career options for the ambitious
young wolfhound of today.

For the academically gifted hound, the professions offer secure prospects and the sort of salaries that mean he'll never have to worry where the next bone comes from:
Archaeologist : Bank manager : Botanist: 'Ear-line' pilot:
Marine Engineer: Paleontologist: Teacher

Super-fit, outdoor types may prefer the challenge
of pushing their bodies to the limit as:
Arctic explorer: Fitness instructor: Lifeguard: Personal trainer: Pool attendant

The less academically inclined may be happier carrying out manual work:
Chef : Doorman: Electrician: Fruit picker: Gardener: Butcher: Laundromat supervisor: Miner
Quality control checker: Security guard: Tree surgeon: Window cleaner

For the extrovert hound who is a bit of a showman, a life in the entertainment industry
could be considered, with the lure of celebrity status
and perhaps an appearance in 'Hello' magazine or 'Dogs Today':
Acrobat: Balancing act: Comedian: Contortionist: Dancer: Elvis impersonator: Fashion model:
Hollywood celebrity: Illusionist: Male model: Showgirl: Singer: Snake charmer

The wolfhound's reputation for gentleness is well deserved,
and makes them eminently suitable for a career in one of the caring professions:
Care assistant: Counsellor: Dentist: Midwife: Paediatric nurse: Policeman: Nanny: Surgical nurse

Of course, there will always be those who, for one reason or another, are unemployable.

And, finally, a word of caution - in today's social climate, many a young wolfhound has
come to grief by hanging out with bad company (particularly dobes and Jack Russells).
