Jennifer Shryock, Certified Dog Behavior Consultant (CDBC) and Licensed Family Dog Mediator, is the owner and founder of Family Paws® LLC.(2002-present). She has a certification from the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants and a duo degree in Special education and Elementary Education with more than 30 years of experience. She’s served on multiple boards, including the International Childbirth Education Association, and was Vice President of Doggone Safe, a non-profit dedicated to dog bite prevention and victim support. (2001-2016)
A recognized expert on dog and baby/toddler interactions and safety, Jennifer has mentored hundreds of dog professionals, written and spoken extensively about these important topics.
While working with the rescue organization she adopted her dog from, Jennifer found herself supporting families with babies or young children overwhelmed by the challenges of their situations. This need for support and education led her to build resources for new and expecting families through Family Paws®. This specialized service led to creating the highly endorsed international program Dogs & Storks® for expecting and adopting families, followed by Dogs & Toddlers™. This ultimately led to the creation of Family Paws® Parent Education, now offering programs and services worldwide.
Jennifer lives in Cary, North Carolina, with her husband, children, 3 dogs, 5 cats and 2 adorable guinea pigs.
