Thank you for your question.
They are very sought after jobs, why would anyone want to leave their job working with dogs!
There is quite a waiting list at present but my advice would be to gain experience working with dogs. Volunteer at your local pound or kennels to gain logbook experience. That may increase your chances of being successful over someone without the experience.
