David Werner International; Can A Dog Help You Get A Career

Monday, May 11th, 2009

How can a dog help you get a new job?  Yes – it’s true. As a marketing consultant to executives in transition – C-level executives  - I am often confronted with a situation for which I am not qualified.  I am referring to those who have not yet come to terms with their unemployed status and as a result can become disheartened, depressed or certainly find it difficult to muster the necessary enthusiasm and positive attitude to win at the interview.

It is at these moments that one needs to recalibrate ones feelings and attitudes and refocus on those things that really matter. – family and friends.  I have also found in my own case whenever helping others that I too need to regain my perspective and recalibrate.  I therefore decided to buy a puppy and train it as a hospital dog.  The satisfaction and joy that has brought me more than makes up for the pressures of the job. 

“In a study of 100 Medicare patients, dog owners had 21% fewer doctor visits.  Pet owners were proven to have lower blood pressure, lower everyday stress, and lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels than non pet owners.  People with pets also suffer fewer minor health problems, such as painful joints, hay fever, insomnia, and anxiety.  70% of families surveyed reported an increase in happiness and fun after adopting a pet.” (source: Texas Vet News, http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&A=1875&S=4 )

When you are happier, you feel more confident.  You hold your head up high.  This shows in everything you do, even your job interviews.

Message: Get a dog – they don’t worry and they don’t complain
