Meet Karina Tittjung, Bonez 4 Budz

Karina, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Alright, so you had your idea and then what happened? Can you walk us through the story of how you went from just an idea to executing on the idea

I’ve always loved dogs, but more than that, I’ve always felt this pull to deepen the connection between dogs and their humans. I didn’t just want pets to be loved, I wanted them to be understood, challenged, and truly fulfilled. That idea sat with me for a long time. The turning point really came through my own dogs, especially Duke, our Doberman. He’s a big, smart, sensitive boy, and loving him well meant learning how to engage his mind, not just his body. That’s when I started diving into enrichment, lick mats, puzzles, intentional play, and I saw firsthand how much it changed his behavior, his confidence, and our bond. That’s when the idea clicked: more people need access to this, and they need someone to guide them through it.

Once that spark hit, I couldn’t unsee it.
