Profile: Boston WoofWorks!

Graduating Animal Behavior College with honors in 2003 as a Certified Dog Trainer has given me unlimited opportunities and I am really taking advantage of them. I’ve taught both group and private, basic through advanced, classes at one of the North American pet superstores five (5) days a week, at least three (3) classes (sometimes six (6)!) of up to twelve (12) dogs, for two (2) years. I would never dare say I’ve seen it all, but I can say I’ve seen A LOT, and that nothing, at this point, surprises me! If you are looking for a trainer with experience, I definitely qualify.

Today I have my own canine consulting business, Boston WoofWorks!, serving Boston North and West, working privately with dogs from ten (10) weeks to ten plus (10+) years. I heard a great quote the other day: “Training establishes and maintains a positive relationship between dogs and people.” I’ve never been better able to explain why I train, what I love about training, and why I want to share the information with as many people as I am able.

I offer private in-home training at affordable prices that includes Basic to Advanced Training and Customized Programs for Behavior Modification. I have standard goals for each class, but you also get involved in setting some goals you’d like to reach before our work is through. I teach based on the positive reinforcement methods I learned at Animal Behavior College and other advanced study and certification. However, I do realize that everyone, animals and people, are different, so I keep that in mind when it comes to solving problems. I am always up for trying something new. Since I own Woofworks!, I make the rules and I can approach each person, dog, and situation with the unique attention they deserve.

I encourage you to visit my website, at http://woofworks.thedogtrainer.org for additional information. You can also reach my by telephone at 781.771.5170 and by e-mail at jen....@verizon.net.

My doggie day care business is located on 6+ acres at my residence. 3+ acres are fenced in, broken into 5 separate yards. Day care doggies get integrated into my pack and play all day. They go home smiling, happy, and covered in mud! I also work with dogs that have separation anxiety, fear and aggression issues, etc., and I love to be a facilitator in a dog’s rehabilitation. My pack really does all the work in helping a dog be a dog again. Too many humans have humanized their dogs to the point that the dogs have forgotten how to be dogs and how to have healthy interaction with other dogs. So, my guys straighten them right out and help them remember what it’s like to be in a pack again. (After all, they were born in a pack!) Before you know it, they’re running, romping and having lots of fun! Also, they become much more manageable, stable, balanced and peaceful at home, which makes for happier humans in the household.
