After a decade working in advertising, Jen Worth decided to make her part-time training career a full-time dream. Jen combined her love of dogs with another talent, helping people.

Upon moving to the San Francisco Bay Area, Jen began volunteering at the SF/SPCA. Jen loved working with shelter dogs and especially dogs with behavior challenges. Her dedication as a SF/SPCA volunteer earned her the honor of Volunteer of the Month in January 1999.

Jen is among the first graduates of the San Francisco SPCA’s Academy for Dog Trainers. The Academy is rapidly gaining a reputation as the “Harvard for Dog Trainers”. Jen studied under renowned behavior expert Jean Donaldson, author of “The Culture Clash”. She earned a Certificate in Training and Counseling, and graduated with honors from the SPCA’s program.

Jen is a firm believer of continuing education and furthers her knowledge of dog behavior by attending various workshops on dog training. She is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. Additionally, in 2002 Jen attended a 40 hour Operant Conditioning Workshop with Bob Bailey, one of the forefathers in operant conditioning.

Jen has been active in Rottweiler Rescue, and has helped evaluate, train and foster homeless Rottweilers. While no longer active in rescue work, Jen believes in giving back to the community by donating her time at local shelters. Jen is owned and loved by her two Rottweilers, Milo and Luna.
