Jacob, I started by listening to podcasts and reading a ton of books.  Find someone in your market that is doing what you want to do.  Ask to meet with them.  Ask them questions about their business and ask if they have considered taking on an free intern?.. 

Hey guys, the market has shifted and so should your expectations.  There are deals, but the deals you find today are not the deals we were finding 4 years ago.  Do your research and adjust your expectations and you will be able to finds deals.

If you are dealing with buyers you need to educate them to what a current deal looks like.  If your buyers expectations can't be met, they need to change their expectations to meet their market or look for another market.

Some wholesalers have deals while other just re-market deals that other wholesalers have.

There are still deals around both on the MLS and off.. They just look different or are a bit harder to spot now.

Good Luck

I'd add language that the tenant is to remain in control of the animal at all times..  

and 

the tenant is responsible for all liability of the animal and a "hold harmless" for you the owner..

What if this dog get loose and hurts a neighbors child?. Guess who gets sued?  Not them, they don't have any assets.. You do..
