Ready to turn your military experience into a career working with dogs?
North County Canine Training’s Department of War (DoW) SkillBridge Program has officially been recertified through 2028, and we currently have IMMEDIATE OPENINGS for transitioning service members!
This is not a program where you stand on the sidelines and watch. You’ll get hands-on experience working with dogs, clients, and professional trainers while preparing for a career in the canine industry after military service.
Throughout the program, participants gain experience in:
• Working with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and behavioral challenges
• Obedience training & behavior modification
• Teaching dog owners proper training techniques and handling skills
• Conducting evaluations of prospective clients and their dogs
• Scent detection & odor work
• Tracking & trailing
• Protection training & working-dog development
• Canine behavior, drives, and training progression
• Kennel operations, canine care, maintenance & facility management
• Working alongside experienced professional dog trainers
We don’t just teach you how to train dogs.
Our goal is to develop the skills necessary to train the dog, teach the owner, evaluate behavior, solve problems, and operate in a professional canine training environment.
If you’re currently serving and preparing to transition out of the military, start building your next career before you take off the uniform.
🇺🇸 Immediate SkillBridge openings are available.

Your military service may be coming to an end. Your next mission is just beginning.
