Hi, I’m Jennifer—founder of Bone Worx, enrichment junkie, and your dog’s favorite treat dealer.

I launched Bone Worx in 2016 to help people and dogs live in harmony. My volunteer work with the Oregon Humane Society and the Pixie Project deepened my passion for canine behavior—from stubborn sitters to jumpers, nippers, and growlers.

I’m also a Dachshund lover—these stubborn little dogs have always had my heart.

  I specialize in problematic behaviors, leash pulling, reactivity, and aggression in dogs. I became a Certified Dog Trainer in 2016 after graduating from Animal Behavior College and joined Doggy Business the same year, leading 4-hour training playgroups with 20–25 dogs.

As a behavioral consultant, I strengthened my skills in reading body language, adapting quickly, and creating personalized training plans.

I also worked with Doug Duncan, MA, CTC, CPDT-KA, CBCC-KA, on complex cases involving fear, aggression, reactivity, shyness, confidence-building, leash challenges, dog-dog tension, and human-directed fear.

In 2025, I completed the Master’s Course on Aggression in Dogs taught by Michael Shikashio CDBC.

At Bone Worx, every service is tailored to you and your dog's unique needs. Whether your dog is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I create practical, fun sessions that support you both—bringing more confidence, peace of mind, and breathing room to your day.

I train dogs kindly and effectively—no e-collars or harsh methods. Using positive reinforcement, I create a calm, cooperative learning environment that builds trust and results.

  In 2016, I became a Certified Pet Sitter through Animal Behavioral College.

I’m also a member of the Pet Professionals Guild and Pet Sitters International.

I stay current through workshops, seminars, conventions, and collaboration with other dog training professionals.

I earned my Dog Bite Prevention Educator certification in 2021, renew my PetTech CPR & First Aid certification yearly, and always carry first-aid and emergency gear.

I graduated from the Dog*Tec Dog Walking Academy in 2017, earning my professional dog-walking credentials—yes, it’s a thing.

Today, I walk dogs with leash-pulling, reactivity, and aggression, where every walk involves strategy, treats, and tactical leash skills.

For dogs who react to unfamiliar dogs, people, or suspicious lawn ornaments, I help identify triggers, manage reactivity, and guide dogs and owners with compassionate, customized training.

  In 2021, I earned my Canine Enrichment Technician Certification—and yes, I’m an enrichment junkie.

Enrichment supports your dog’s instincts—like sniffing, digging, chasing, problem-solving, and playing—while stimulating their body and mind, reducing stress, building confidence, and even helping with separation anxiety.

Whether your dog is a high-drive herder, scent hound, or anything in between, they thrive when their environment supports who they are.

Best of all, enrichment doesn’t need to be expensive or time-consuming—a cardboard box and treats can go a long way.

Rain or shine, I’m there to keep your dog happy, moving, and cared for—raincoat, paw towel, and all.

My flexible schedule fits your busy day, whether your dog needs a lunchtime stretch or an evening energy burn.

Ready to give your dog the care, attention, and training they deserve? Let’s connect—whether they need a walk, training session, or weekend buddy.

From couch potatoes to squirrel chasers, Bone Worx helps bring harmony home—one tail wag at a time.

Follow Bone Worx on Facebook and Instagram—your dog may thank you with a lick to the face.

"It is never too late to be what you might have been." — George Eliot.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. ❤️

Here's to many more adventures with our beloved dogs!
