The Dog Wellbeing Technician will be an expert in canine wellbeing and husbandry, with strong knowledge of dog health, behaviour, welfare standards and positive handling techniques. You’ll use your expertise to make informed decisions, identify and escalate health concerns, and coach colleagues and volunteers in best practice dog care. Our Dog Wellbeing Technicians play a huge part in ensuring everything we do enables us to deliver on our purpose and exceed expectations.

Maintain accurate and up to date records. Interpret health data and identify concerns/trends within the local dog population.
Transport dogs across the region for health-related appointments with internal and external bodies.

You

You’ll have a person‑centred, expert and optimistic approach to your work, grounded in a strong understanding of animal wellbeing and dog care principles.
