About Canine Moxy

They provide a range of services including group classes, private lessons, private video sessions, online courses, and mentoring. Customers have shared positive experiences, highlighting the effectiveness of the training and the patience of the trainers. One customer appreciated the two-hour private in-home lesson with Kris Tait, which addressed fear-based aggression in their rescue dog. Kris took the time to teach the whole family a consistent approach, giving clear instructions and helpful context behind his methods. The dog responded well from the start, and the training helped make visits less stressful. The customer was impressed with Kris' knowledge, calm manner, and flexible program, and has signed up for more sessions. Another customer was amazed with the progress their puppy made after just one day of training. They expressed gratitude for the help and mentioned that even their 9-year-old daughter was applying what they learned at orientation for her cat, and they plan to extend this to their tortoises. They felt that investing in Canine Moxy was the best money spent all year. A third customer praised Kris for training their 4-year-old lab, who was very reactive, jumping on visitors and pulling on the leash. Kris was patient and effective, giving them the tools needed for quick, positive results. They highly recommend Canine Moxy for their knowledgeable and friendly approach. Overall, Canine Moxy is a trusted dog training business that emphasizes owner education, effective techniques, and attentive trainers. Customers have found their methods helpful and have seen meaningful improvements in their dogs' behavior.
Outstanding Training with Real Results Kris Tait at Canine Moxy has been instrumental in strengthening my understanding of my dog and developing effective obedience strategies. Through both group and private lessons, he's helping us progress toward our goals of on and off-leash obedience and agility work. What sets Kris apart is his keen, practical approach. He doesn't just teach commands—he creates real-world stress tests and brings in other people and dogs to address specific challenges, ensuring the training actually sticks outside the classroom. His expertise has been invaluable in building true partnership with my dog, not just compliance. If you're looking for a trainer who delivers ongoing progress and sets you up for long-term success, I highly recommend Kris at Canine Moxy.
We had a two-hour private in-home lesson with Kris Tait of Canine Moxy to address fear-based aggression in our rescue dog, and it exceeded expectations. Kris took the time to teach all of us—myself and family members—as a unit so we could apply a consistent approach. He gave clear, helpful context behind his methods and commands, and our dog responded incredibly well right from the start. That same day, two friends visited and we were able to put the training into practice immediately. Using the new tools and commands, our dog was noticeably calmer and able to cope faster. The result? A much less stressful visit for everyone. Kris came well-prepared with the right size training aids (which we were able to purchase after trying them), and his modular, flexible training program fits perfectly with our busy work schedules—so we've signed up for more sessions. Having worked with several trainers over the years, I can say Kris stands out. He brings deep, broad knowledge of dog behavior, along with a calm, friendly, and relatable manner that makes learning feel doable and even enjoyable. Highly recommend.
I am amazed!! And I am grateful that I waited the long 5 years of Snickers’ reactive life!! Glad I had not tried any other dog trainer except Canine Moxy Kris!! I already look forward to walking “puppy” more and more and it’s only day 1 after her first class!! Even my 9 year old daughter has been applying what we learned at orientation for her cat! And we plan to also apply for our tortoises!! I truly am happy to have invested what we already have in Canine Moxy!! Best money spent all year!! For sure!!
