What job would your dog take if s/he could?
Have you ever wondered what kind of human job your pet would take if it could? For grins, I thought I'd write fake job postings for jobs my dogs would probably apply for.
Fake Job Posting #1
My senior dog, Shadow, enjoys watching TV when he's home. He watches a variety of programs and videos including pets on social media, cooking TV programs, and action movies.
Because of his love for TV, I thought Shadow would be a great match for a TV and Film Reviewer job position.

Fake Job Posting #2
I struggled thinking of a possible job for my small dog, Rascal. Unlike Shadow who loves and could be great at a lot of different things, Rascal fears almost everything in life. Children, washing machines, rain drops, moths, and dust are just a few of his greatest fears in life.
So, I asked my Dad what job he thought Rascal would be good at. Dad suggested Rascal would make a decent Night Security Guard for a food establishment or other re-tail business Rascal likes. After all, Rascal spends a lot of time guarding our home and alerting every household member of any potential threat on or near the property.
