People work everyday so as to have financial stability to go through each and every day. Now did you know that there are Canuck dogs who also work? Yes, there are dogs who work and have a job just like people do.

There are Canuck dogs who work as guide dogs. These are those dogs you would see with people who are visually impaired. They serve as the eyes of the person and they guide people to where they are going. These guide dogs are trained well and most breeds who become guide dogs are golden retrievers, German shepherds, and Labrador retrievers.

Hearing dogs are also very much like guide dogs. The difference between the hearing dog and the guide dog is that the former would alert their master through physical contact when it hears important sounds.

Canuck dogs can also work as a therapy dog. Any kind of dog can be a therapy dog although there are certain features that must be present like being able to follow commands, being friendly and knowing how to react well to different situations. As their job title suggests, therapy dogs help people in expressing who they are and coping with pent up feelings.

Search and rescue Canuck dogs are high trained animals. They work with the police or with other organizations who do search and rescue work. Search and rescue dogs are of great help for they can go through rubble and they can smell and sense if there are still people alive in a devastated area.

There are also Canuck dogs who work as herding dogs. Known as the oldest job that a dog has held, herding is still currently one of the most popular jobs for Canuck dogs. However, their job description has now expanded from just herding cattle and sheep to their farms but there are now competitions wherein herding dogs battle it out with each other.
