How do you get a dog training license?

I am sixteen and was wondering if it was possible to get certified as a dog trainer at my age. I also live in California if that helps. If its possible to get the license, how long will the process take?

You do not need a license or a certification to train dogs. You just need to train a lot of dogs. Taking classes in animal behavior, learning theory, animal husbandry, business management, and the like will help but nothing beats experience. Start by volunteering to train dogs at your local shelter. Teach them the basics and it will make them more adoptable plus you will gain experience from working with a variety of dogs and dog problems.
