Meet Jenn Friedline | Certified Dog Behavior Consultant, Family Dog Mediator & Professional Dog Trainer

Hi, I'm Jenn Friedline, founder and lead trainer of Jenn's Dogs in Cornelius, Oregon. I'm a Certified Behavior Consultant Canine – Knowledge Assessed (CBCC-KA), Certified Family Dog Mediator (FDM), and Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA), specializing in canine behavior modification, positive reinforcement, force-free dog training, and helping families better understand the dogs they share their lives with.

My work goes far beyond teaching basic obedience. I specialize in helping dogs with big emotions, including fear, anxiety, reactivity, aggression, and difficulty navigating everyday life. Through individualized behavior modification programs, family dog training, and compassionate education, I help guardians understand not just what their dogs are doing, but why they're doing it.

At Jenn's Dogs, we believe successful dog training begins with understanding the individual dog. Their genetics, breed-specific tendencies, environment, learning history, emotional experiences, and individual preferences all influence how they interact with the world. As a Family Dog Mediator, I emphasize understanding these influences so we can develop realistic expectations, improve communication, and create relationships built on trust, safety, and cooperation.

Enrichment is an essential part of that philosophy. Providing opportunities for species-typical and breed-typical behaviors helps dogs meet their needs, supports emotional well-being, and creates opportunities for calmer, more confident behavior. But enrichment is only one piece of a much bigger picture.

Through Jenn's Dogs Online Education, I'm expanding access to professional dog training and behavior education beyond our physical training studio. Our virtual dog training courses, on-demand webinars, and educational workshops are designed to make reliable, practical information accessible to guardians wherever they live.

From puppy training and basic manners to canine enrichment, muzzle training, alert barking, behavior modification, and understanding reactive dogs, my goal is to provide education that helps families make informed, compassionate decisions for their individual dogs.

I believe that progress isn't measured by obedience alone. It's measured by how safe, confident, and comfortable our dogs feel navigating the world alongside us.

Whether you're beginning your journey with a new puppy, working through challenging behaviors, or simply looking to deepen your understanding of your dog, I'm here to help you build a stronger relationship through clear, compassionate communication.
