In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can choose to attend a four-year college or university that offers a degree in Animal Behavior. This type of program would give you the most thorough foundation in animal psychology. It also demonstrates to potential employers that you have invested a lot of time and effort into learning the necessary skills to become a dog trainer. Meet with an admissions counselor at a nearby college and ask for information about their degree program in Animal Behavior. Consider the costs and the time that you will need to put in in order to succeed. If you do not have the time, money, or desire to get a college degree to become a dog trainer, there are other ways to further your education. One way is to go to trade school. Although these programs are not accredited in the same way that colleges are, there are many reputable programs. Do some research online, and read reviews from former students to learn what the experience is like. It is possible to earn your certification as a dog trainer without completing coursework. You can contact the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT) for more information. However, you should know that you do need to have prior training experience before you can receive your certification. Also, be aware that the CCPDT charges approximately $400 for certification. Once you are certified, the CCPDT requires you to participate in continuing education, which means that you will need to take certain classes and seminars each year. One of the best ways to learn the necessary skills is by working closely with an experienced dog trainer. Some training programs include apprenticeships, and the school will set you up with a mentor. Make sure to ask about this part of the program before you choose the coursework that is right for you. If you are not attending classes, you can still get guidance from a professional. Many larger dog training businesses offer internships. Contact the obedience schools in your area to find out if this is an option. Be aware that interns/apprentices are often paid very little, and sometimes not at all.
Summary: Research programs. Receive your certification. Find an apprenticeship.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Purchase strips of copper flashing and foil and wrap them around the lower portions of exposed plants. You can even enclose plants growing directly in the soil with a solid piece of copper. Snails have difficulty climbing up the slick metallic surface, which is believed to give them a light electrical shock. When using copper collars to protect in-ground plants, be sure to sink them deep enough to prevent crafty snails from burrowing underneath. Many gardening centers sell bands of copper that are 68 inches (1520cm) wide for precisely this purpose. Be careful not to disturb or damage the roots while you're placing the copper band around the plant. Invading snails will have difficulty sliding over the rough, shifting edges of the shells. Apply the eggshells heaviest around plants that snails like to munch on, like herbs, leafy fruits and vegetables, and newly-opened flowers. Snails also have difficulty traveling across other loose materials like sand and sawdust, and tend not to try unless they're desperate for food. Garden snails are particularly fond of beans, cabbage, basil, delphinium, hostas, dahlias, lettuce, strawberries and marigolds. The acid present in used coffee grounds will quickly dry out the soil. Since snails don't like to travel on dry ground, they'll think twice about coming any closer. Coffee is also a natural repellent to pests like snails due to its pungent odor and high acidity. It's important to use grounds that have already been used to brew coffee. Freshly-ground beans won't provide the same effect. Shake out the salt in a loose ring around at-risk specimens, being careful not to get any on the plants themselves. It's common knowledge that salt is deadly to snails and slugs. When they crawl over it, it will cling to their sticky bodies, dehydrating them rapidly and eventually causing them to dissolve. Grab a coarse-ground variety of salt like kosher or sea salt rather than ordinary table salt. The larger pieces won't break down as quickly in damp soil. Salt can be harmful to vegetation as well, so it isn't a good idea to sprinkle it directly onto your plants or any areas where you intend to do any growing in the future. The fine white powder works by leaving tiny cuts on the bellies of any slugs that come into contact with it, eventually leading to dehydration. Because its action is physical rather than chemical, diatomaceous earth makes an excellent deterrent not just for snails, but for a host of other soft-bodied pests. You can find diatomaceous earth at most major garden centers and greenhouses, and even some hardware stores. Look for untreated products designed specifically for garden use. Always wear a breathing mask anytime you're working with diatomaceous earth. It can be a serious irritant if inhaled. Snails pellets come in small, chewable pieces that are flavored with extracts from some of the critters' favorite foods to be extra enticing. Their active ingredient, however, is a chemical known as metaldehyde. Any snails who consume the pellets will die of poisoning shortly afterward. Be aware that snail pellets can also be extremely toxic to other animals and even people. For this reason, they're not a wise solution for those with small children or pets at home.
Summary: Fashion copper collars for potted plants and tree trunks. Sprinkle eggshells around the base of vulnerable plants. Scatter coffee grounds over the surrounding soil. Cover the soil with a light coating of salt. Use diatomaceous earth in problem areas throughout your garden. Apply snail pellets around your plants as a last resort.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: For a toner that softens your skin as well, splash a teaspoon or two of apple cider vinegar over your face and let it sit for five minutes. Rinse it off with warm water. Make sure not to leave any traces, or you'll smell like vinegar for the rest of the day.
Summary:
Use a splash of apple cider vinegar.
