Stand alone animal care courses

Hmm, I notice there are not very many stand alone animal care type courses. I am currently working a contract job that is non related to animals, but it requires travel and time away from my family, and i don't like that part of it. My real dream is to work with animals somehow, pay is not important. I am not interested in doing a full program like a Vet Tech type thing, that is just to intense.

Any suggestions? I don't really need any courses to get in to working with animals, but i figure it can't hurt. If they are cheap, it is something to think about.

Thanks Sanatone,

The Penn Foster program is pretty cool, Chinese medicine!

 

You could start here for VERY little money, Abner. I have LOTS of Dummies books - photography, guitar playing, computers & programming -- all great resources.

Pet Books - For Dummies

I have no doubt their books on animals and their care are up to the usual high standards.

Thanks Johann. I will keep that in mind for sure!
