Volunteer opportunties

 Do you have a passion for dogs and training and want to be more involved with Sherwood Barks? 

We rely on our volunteers to support us during classes by cleaning, sanitizing, moving equipment and more! 

Perks of a volunteer position? Be emerged in dog training, watch and learn from science based, positive reinforcement dog trainers. Learn how to help students be the best handler for their individual dog's needs and pursue a potential career in dog training! 

Note: This is not a casual position, volunteers are chosen based on their experience, motivation, goals and passion for puppies and dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments.
