"I've had the pleasure of working with Kris for several years now and I don't hesitate to send my clients to her. I've really been amazed with her ability to take some of these dogs that are absolute nightmares in the hospital setting and make them more sociable pets. It makes my job easier and I know my clients are happy to have an animal they can take out in public without worrying about a potential liability. In fact, the boxer I recently rescued and myself will be setting up an appointment with Kris in the very near future."
"Kris has done a great job with our clients' dogs and puppies. She helped us with our puppy that is now a well behaved 98# adult that my kids can easily lead around. I have used her information with our clients and helped them to decide what to do with certain behavioral problems. Like everything else, the earlier a problem can be identified the easier it is to fix. Kris's Puppy classes are excellent at building a good foundation so owners understand what is acceptable behavior and what types of "playing" will become unacceptable problems later. Owning a dog is a major decision for an individual family and Canine Bliss can help get the most out of your family friend." - Dr. Ryan Zimmerman Westview Veterinary Hospital
I had a great time with my German Shepherd pup. All my expectations were met He walks better on leash, is more calm meeting people and is just better in general. I learned a lot in all areas from grooming, dog food, exercise, and training. I recommend this class for anyone with a misbehaving dog or one that just need some fine tuning. Chelsea Ebert
We've enjoyed your classes, they have been so helpful in managing Mackey and Lexie and we will continue to use the lessons to reinforce what we learned in your classes. You do a wonderful job. Thank you!!
Everything Kris, our instructor did in class was very informative. The homework each week was very self explanatory and I plan to refer back on each weeks lesson. Grady, our Springer Spaniel had developed into a good listener and being intuned to my commands. Nancy Herl
I will tell my friends, family and co-workers that it will help their dogs behavior a lot to send them to Canine Bliss for dog training classes. Kris is very friendly and helpful and her dogs are very well behaved. It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed seeing the other dogs get better along with my dog Buster.

When we got Ellie, my diabetic alert dog, we were told that we should attend puppy classes of some sort. We were recommended to go to Canine Bliss. Kris has helped Ellie and I work better together and helped Ellie behave better when she is out in public and at home. We plan on continuing with classes to further Ellies training.
Kris came highly recommended by our vet. She is obviously an extremely knowledgeable trainer who cares deeply for dogs. More than other trainers I've previously worked with, Kris provided that 360 degree comprehensive insight on behavior and doggie psche..I learned how to respond to and train our pets, proper feeding and other essentials in care. I will most definately be returning for highter level obedience training and also signing up my older dog for training. I wish I had known about Kris years ago, she has made a tremendous difference in quality of life and happiness we share with our furry family! Thanks Kris! From Audra Strnad & Roxy, Sunny & Gigi
Because of the training classes with Kris we will be able to keep Izzy. We rescued Izzy from the Humane Society and was not aware of what it would take to be able to handle a boxer who had been mistreated. We feel Izzy is perfect, smart and trainable. We attribute this to personalized attention that we recieved from Kris. We recommend that anyone in need of help contact Kris. They will not be disappointed. John & Dianne Stayancho
I met Kris about 14 years ago with our first lab Shadow. Kris was wonderful then with the classes. We have gotten another lab Sophie and she has had to be alpha ever since we brought her home. She pulled, jumped, and pushed her way around the other dogs in the family. It was also very hard to walk Sophie. The classes have helped again! Sophie is enjoyable to walk with, the jumping is better (still have to train grandma and grandpa). We are still working on the bullying stuff but we will get there. Kris is very knowlegable and great with you and your dog. We have another pup and will be back. Highly recommend her obedience classes (training). Thank you Kris! Rick, Cass & Sophie McCubbin
After 25 years of having cocker spaniels, Brandi was our first alpha dog. She pulled, jumped and barked and nothing we tried worked with her. Kris and her obedience training was recommended to us and what a difference her Level 1 class has made with Brandi and my relationship. Walks are now enjoyable and I have the tools to work with all of her issues. Kris is very knowlegable and very good to work with you and and your dog. I would highly recommend her obedience training. Olivia Ehlert
Craig, Bronwynn and I would like to offer our sincerest thanks for helping us figure out how to take her for a walk. Bronwynn is a very timid English Mastiff and to see her gain some confidence is just amazing. Thank you so much for your time, patience, and gentle corrections that you gave to get us here. Sincerely, Craig, Heather, and Bronwynn
Thank you Kris! Mackey was such a handful to handle and as much as we love dogs and had them most of our married life, he was the first one to frustrate us. With the time spent in your classes, Mackey has improved greatly. He's still a work in progress, but with what you have taught as well as the handouts, we have the tools to continue his training. Again, we thank you for your knowledge and your patience, and yes, we would highly recommend you. Continured Success! Dean & Robin Cochran
Having expressed I had a fear of dogs until I acquired "Tank" (Boxer) Kris and her staff made sure I was comfortable as this was a huge step for me to be sitting in a room filled with other dogs. Attending the Level 1 class has taught me to have better control over Tank before he can react nagatively.

The classes at Canine Bliss helped us so much with our 1 yr old yorkie-shon Sophie. She was an endless ball of energy and did'nt listen to us. Now she is pleasant to walk and a much more enjoyable member of our family. Thanks, Dave and Paula Combs (Tiffin)
What a superior dog training site Fremont Ohio has to offer canine owners! My golden Retriever pup "Elley" and I have completed Puppy Preschool and Level 1 Basic Training classes. Canine Bliss was definitely the answer for introducing Elley and I to expected good manners and basic obedience training. Kris was such a knowledgable instructor and very respected by both the dogs and their owners. She took time to work personally with each handler to address individual behavior challenges. Although most instruction took place inside the site, valuable real life training practice time was completed on the walking trail adjacent to the building. I am so pleased with Elley's progress! Thanks to Canine Bliss Elley and I are surviving and enjoying puppyhood! Jane Stotz
I unexpectedly acquired a 2 month old chocolate lab puppy and realized I had no experience and no idea how to train, or even appropriately interact with him. Books were of some help but we (Duke and I) needed way more help than that. Friends recommended Canine Bliss and the classes have been great. We have done the puppy class and Level One. The instructors have been very patient with us, recognizing that we are both rookies. We have made lots of progress and plan to continue classes and refine and maintain what we have learned. I would recommend this to anyone who is new to the world of dog ownership. Duke is (mostly) a joy to have around! John Hiestand
My experience at Canine Bliss was exceptionally good for me and my pet "Amy". We both learned from the courses and everyone who say Amy before the classes, noticed the improvements! Thank you! Grace Blayman & Amy
I really enjoyed the class. I think the instruction was great! I would send anyone who is looking for a trainer here. Carlos Zamudio
Excellent teacher with a wealth of knowledge. Kris will give you the tools to work with your pet and make training fun! Mary and Tim Gocke
Kris and the staff at Canine Bliss were so very helpful in teaching us techniques that work! They are compassionate about what they do and it shows through their work. They answered any and all of our questions, we are so glad we came to Canine Bliss' obedience class. Laryn Snyder
I loved this class! So helpful and informative! Kris is wonderful with the dogs. (She is awesome with the people also) She really knows how to "zero" in on any individulas problems and help people deal with them. It is so rewarding to know that I actually made a difference in my dog's life. Thanks Kris, you are awesome! Angie Smith and Max
This was a great experience for both Maddox and me. We both learned a lot. Thanks for teaching this old dog some new tricks! Kevin Horn
Kris did a great job with me and Toby. I learned a lot about myself and how my behaviors rub off on my dog!! Would recommend this course to everyone who has never had a dog or even those who have always had dogs. It was just what we needed to bring some harmony to our home and our daily outings! Denise Workman
My wife Barb and I recently adopted a five-year old beagle named Buddy. Since we have four children under the age of seven, we believe it is imperative that we have a well-behaved, well-trained dog. The class did not disappoint! Barb and I applied the training tips and techniques at home, and we were pleased with how well Buddy responded. Kris, owner of Canine Bliss, encouraged my family to develop a relationship with our new dog-not just train him-and support quickened the training applications. My children even attended some of the classes and applied the strategies during their free time at home. Without hesitation, I would recommend this class for anyone who desires a happy, well-trainined companion. Charles Tackett
I brought Rufus to class to learn to control him on walks and to curb his enthusiasm when guests came to the house. We accomplished those goals and much more. It has been so helpful to learn techniques and the thinking behind them. As with raising kids, dog DO respond to structure and consistency. The common sense approach to dealing with Ru's behavior has proven to be workable for us and will no doubt make life easier for all of us.
The classes were fun and informative. It was amazing to see the behavior change in everyone participating. It was litterally noticable from class to class. I have already recommended it to 2 people! Jim Greer
We have nothing but praises for Kris and her staff. Our dog Chewy is a better pet as we have become better pet owners. Kris is great at problem solving and very knowledgeable. If you want a better pet, one that you can live comfortably with in your home, then come see Kris and let her help you get an understanding of how to accomplish your goals. Thanks Kris, continued success. We have nothing but praises for Canine Bliss. Susanne & Roger Tyree p.s. Chewy loves you too!!
VERY helpful getting us started on the right foot with our puppy. I appreciated the availablity of Kris - I could pick up the phone and ask anything. kris would know what to suggest and it worked!
My dogs Gabe and Mariah love coming to class. They enjoy our relationship and also the instructor. They have learned how to behave and both myslef and Gabe and Mariah are looking forward to continuing our training with Kris. Deab Yeagle
While taking the class I would walk Lucy around the neighborhood and we would practice our homework. All the walkers and people gardening told me what a well behaved dog she was! Everyone around town noticed her improvements. Much credit goes to this class and its guidness. Kathleen Fowler
Kris is a wonderful instructor full of knowlede. Her passion for dogs and wanting the human animal bond to be better truly shows. We have learned a lot and will use it for the rest of our time with our family dog Zoe. Thanks Kris! Karen Overmyer
I previously had a husky and never worked with her much as far as loose leash walking. I assumed since she was a "sled dog" she was supposed to pull. Now that we have adopted our new husky I found out this is not the case. Although she does "have it in her to pull", she is also capable of learning NOT to do so. Walking her now is a much more pleasant experience. We are not constantly fighting over who is the boss and which way we are going. Thank you! Traci Zoller
My dog Coda Bear is a 7 month old black lab. He was high - strung and uncontrolable. Now after completing the Level 1 course, I am finally able to take Coda Bear for a walk with out him walking me. I'm so proud of the "good dog" that he has become! Thanks so much Canine Bliss! Heather Witt
We would highly recommend this course to anyone who would like a better behaved pet. we suggest starting earlier rather than later! (age-wise).
Mr. & Mrs. Mumaw
Even before meeting Kris, I had several conversations with her. I got a new 6 month old puppy, Bentley and totally forgot how much work they were. Kris reassured me it will get better and my action will have reaction with Bently. She gave me wonderful tips on what I needed to do. This was all before I attended a class. I honestly don't think if she wouldn't have spoke with me that I would have kept Bentley, and now he is doing wonderful. Thank you Kris, you were my "Guardian Angel" on those days. MaryBeth Wadsworth
I would recommend Canine Bliss to anyone who is a first time dog owner. Kris was able to answer all my questions and gave lots of info to make sure all the dogs were going tin the right direction. Josh Ballenger
I would highly recommend the Canine Bliss program to any and all dog owners. I attribute the environment that Kris Bliss has created to be very rewarding. The program is casual and comfortable for the dogs and owners, yet the agenda is very direct and deliberate.
As we know, there are all kinds of dog personalities and dog issues (owners too); we had many of them, including our 2 year old rescue dog Mango, in the class. I questioned the ability for us to participate withought being disruptive, let alone accomplish much.
I learned to simplify and be consistent with my communications with my dog. I could not be more pleased with the class and the results. Thank you Kris. Bob Pudelski and Mango
"Sophie" my black lab mix puppy and I attended Canine Companion Level 1 class. Kris is a wonderful instructor. She worked with us individually to meet Sophie's needs, and the small class atmosphere was great working with all the dogs together. Sophie and I learned many behavior skills. I enjoy Sophie so much more since taking the class. Thank you Kris, I recommend you to everyone with a dog! Martha Miller
This class has given me the confidence to handle our little Cairn Terrier in public as well as at home. 3 year old Binky is adjusting to living outside the box. Kris has made that happen with her training and patience. I think all dog owners should have to take this class with this instructor. I am a better dog owner because of Kris and her training. Thanks! Jeanne Livingston
This is probably the best obedience course I have ever taken. Kris's talent for individualized training to each dog and student working in a group is amazing. I would recommend this class to anyone! Teresa Cochran
I would highly recommend your participation in Canine Bliss's Level 1 program. Kris does an outstanding job and I learned a great deal and my dauchsund did too! Barb Smola
Kris Bliss and Canine Bliss' services of classes have been truly helpful in learning happy daily living with my pet. I highly recommend the service! Phyllis Chambers
We would highly recommend Canine Bliss. We took our puppy and 6 yr. old dogs to the same class. Behavior improved for both. Small class size definitely was beneficial. Plenty of time to discuss issues and work on them. Seriously, if Kris could help us improve Kramer's behavior (our 6 year old terror, oops I mean terrier) then she can certainly help anyone! Tom and Laura Klingman
Kris is very knowledgeable and one can tell she has a lot of training in her field. She definitely knows what she is talking about! Allen Stryker and Champ
Jackson's first visit was bad. My husband had to carry him in. He would not walk on a leash. Now he walk with us very well. He gets a little scared of cars, buses, and dogs barking buy we're sure this will get better when he gets used to it. He obeys his commands very well! The Novitski's
When I called Kris I wasn't sure this dog could be salvageable. I don't trust him, but think with carry through with just the basic instructions he will be a lot better. I have seen such improvements! I loved the class and the hours were great for parents getting kids off to school. Kris was extremely helpful! Cindy Toflinski
Canine Bliss was the greatest investment we could have made with our dog. We attended both puppy class and Canine Companion Level 1 and the knowledge we learned was unbelievable! Murphy is now a well trained puppy thanks to Kris and her staff. He went from being an energetic, mischievous puppy to a puppy who now walks great, listens to commands, respects his owners, does a great job socially with other dogs and people and is a true joy to have as part of the family. Thank you so much for your help and we look forward to attending Canine Good Citizen and Canine Companion Level 2 in the spring. Don, Sandy, & Murphy Reinhart
I have a Berner that needed training and had passed Canine Bliss many times. Finally I called and entered a class. It was the best thing I could have done. We had 6 dogs, all different sizes and personalities. I learned more in those 10 lessons than I did watching TV, or other dog classes I have taken. I intend on going on and have a great time teaching and just spending time with Gabe. I would recommend the classes, the holistic products that are sold there, and feel my dog is healthier, happier and has great behavior from my finding Canine Bliss. Deb Yeagle
I was skeptical about spending money on dog training with economy as it is. It was the best money I have ever spent on any of my dogs over the past forty years of having dogs. Jack Case
I learned a lot of great things I never would have thought of on my own. I also thought it was a great way to bond with my dog. I'd definitely recommend their classes! Sara Siekierski
This is money well spent! I find it incredible that after a few weeks, I have this well behaved dog. My friends and neighbors are impressed! Sue Chaney
Kris showed us how to get along better with a strong willed dog! She also taught us (along with our dog), how to get along with other dogs. Molly walks and minds better. The grooming tips has helped us a lot. We are all happier now. We would recommend Kris to anybody who has a strong headed dog like Molly! Rita & Joe Spieldenner
Before attending the classes at Canine Bliss, Rascal was pretty much head of the house. Now we have our house back and know how to get the responses we need from him. We would recommend these classes to anyone wanting a better behaved pet. Wayne & Mary Lou Stults
I've owned dogs in the past but have never had any formal obedience classes. This was very informative! Kris hits so many topics, ones I'd never considered. It is a great way to get your puppy off to a good start and a place to begin correcting or avoiding unwanted behaviors. Thanks to Canine Bliss & Kris. Deb Miller & Scarlet
I feel much more confident when I have my dog out in public that she will act "appropriately" for any situation that may arise - this is completely due to the knowledge and confidence I have received and the training my dog received from Kris! Thanks Kris! You rock! Dianna Bess
When I got Max I didn't know what to expect. I never had a dog before. At class I learned so much and listening to the others going through the same experience as I was made me feel better. I had a big issue with my dog biting and now he hardly ever bites. I have people tell me what a nice dog I have all the time. I highly recommend Canine Bliss to anyone who owns a dog! Janell Hoodlebrink
It is a pleasure to come to classes. I appreciated the extra effort Kris went to when a dog would not be doing something. She would take the time and effort to give that dog special attention to show us how to react to the situation. I would reccommend her training to anyone. Her time and dedication to her profession along with her knowledge are to be commended- Thanks Kris! Bill Gruber
I took puppy and basic obedience classes with my beagle, Jack. Kris gives you all of the information you need to have a healthy, well-behaved dog. The classes are well worth the investment of time and money! Becky Goodwin & Jack
Kris brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her services. Her training approach is balanced and positive. She combines solid behavior theory with realisitc common sense. Kris's training courses emphasizes responsible dog care and handler self control to teach dogs desired behaviors. I am very pleased with my experiences in Level 1 and Level 2 classes. Under Kris's quidance, my dog and I have built a positive foundation for an enjoyable and companionable life together. Thank you Kris! Mandy Mueller
Melton and I learned so much taking this 1st course from Kris at Canine Bilss. I have to be honest, I had much more to learn than Melton. We signed up for the "tricks" class and the 2nd course before the 1st course ended. Melton and I highly recommend Canine Bliss to all dog owners. Sharon S. Neifer
I really enjoyed the class. I learned so much and so did my dog, Amber. It is so much easier to take a walk now, I actually enjoy it. Kris is an awesome instructor. She makes you feel comfortable and answers all your questions. I am looking forward to the next class! Gaye Winterfield
Kris is the "dog whisperer." She is able to analyze your dog's personality and disposition. The training classes are in a group but Kris makes you feel like you are recieveing private 1 on 1 lessons. I recommend Canine Bliss 100%. Pam Hoover
Hi Kris, This is Raven. I wanted my mom to write a letter to you to let you know I enjoyed coming to class and I learned several behaviors that please my owners. You showed mom and me how to have me heel, sit, down, ect. They had started to work with me before classes and realized they were on the right track and how to reinforce my behavior with your training. My parents already thought I was a special little girl and I want to please them. I'm pretty good at staying but come is very hard for me because there is usually something very interesting or distracting when they want me to come. We are working on it. I like the praise and treats I get when I do well.
I've heard mom tell other dog owners we have met on walks about my classes and about future classes we may enroll in so I can become a therapy dog. I love people and I want to spread joy and peace to other people.
Thank you for helping make me a better pet and helping me reach my goal. Raven Margraf & Peg
I started the class wondering how I would make time for it. I ended it sorry to see that it was over. I enjoyed the time it made me spend with Baily and other dog lovers. We both are better off for it. Kris is knowledgable, helpful & personable. I would recommend these classes to anyone that wants to get more out of their relationship with their dog. Mike Brownell
Since taking the class we have found a huge change in our dogs behavior and they look forward to training. Jason Romstadt
Our puppy Lizzy, 7 mo. old, was very shy and scared when we started our basic class. By the time we were finished with our classes she wanted to run with the big boys! Our Lizzy has learned to sit, stay, down, and also not to jump on friends that come over. We are so happy that our puppy learned who was boss in our home and it was not Lizzy. Kris is a very special person with all the patience and kindness she offers to all dogs in our class. Everyone with any kind of dog should enroll in Canine Bliss, you will be glad you did as we are. The rewards are very gratifiying.
Mike & Rosemary Dziak - Lakeside
Before Jasper (my spoiled min pin) and I started this class, I was not sure he would be a very good student. We learned so much! I highly recommend this course for anyone who has a dog that thinks he's the boss. Jasper would pull me (small but mighty) down the street. He was never around a group of dogs before this course. It was a kodak moment when Kris had our class go for a walk. There was Jasper walking with 6 dogs and wasn't acting aggressive. After hearing Kris talk about dog food, and reading the literature I changed his food. I was not aware of the harmful ingredients that is put in dog food.
Kris is a fantastic instructor and now it is up to me to be consistent with everything I learned. Shirley Bush - Bellevue
Kris, My mom Marcia and I just want to thank you for teaching us how to get along better. Marcia isn't yelling at me, my brother Harry, or sisiter Snert as much as she used to yell. I hear the human visitors saying "That Scruffy seems calmer. Scruffy isn't barking as much." Marcia enjoys showing the humans how we dogs wait "calmly" at the door (I even lay down) to be allowed to go outside. Our walks with Marcia are more fun, we go further and Marcia seems happier when we get home.
My Brother is really excited about trick school. Harry is such a show off. Maybe Marcia can bring me for more training later on.......No matter how good we dogs think we are, there's room for improvement. Thanks again Kris, you gals are the best and Marcia tells everyone about your business!! Thanks again, Scruffy....P.S. Marcia thanks you too! Marcia Etzwiler - -Fremont
The classes were so informative. Every class we learned something new that we could go home and apply right away. We would see the results and it would get us so excited to continue to see how much more we could learn. We also have a 4 year old dog at home who had never been to training. We were able to take the things we learned with our puppy and apply them to the older dog and they are both doing terrific! Beth Muffler - Fremont
I really enjoyed my experience at Canine Bliss. This is the second dog I've brought here so I must think it was worth while. It's such a bonding experience working with your dog. So rewarding when they do a task right. Kris teaches you a lot of tricks of the trade to make that happen. Both of my dogs have totally different personalities and required different ways of getting the best out of t them. Thank you Kris! I wish everyone who owns a dog could have this experience. It start you off going in the right direction. Dave and Kathy Reinhart - Tiffin
I am very impressed with Kris and her school, Canine Bliss. She is professional, kind, caring, knowledgeable, helpful, observant, and eager to help us with any dog problem that we might have. I would highly recommend using her services. Thank you so much Kris! Marlene Gulas - Port Clinton
If you have a dog and you really want to enjoy them, to have them be a part of your family, this is a great class. It is small so you get a lot of one on one. Kris shares her knowledge and experiences with you that gies you the confidence you need! You get a lot of intreaction in class. It is a very enjoyable experience for you and your dog. We learned a lot and will use it forever. Thanks for everything. Erik/Robin Peck - Fremont
Kris is very interested in each dog and person (handler) as an individual and will treat them and their problems as such. Elaine Dye - Fremont
Hi Everyone, Last spring we enrolled Tony and Cloudy in one of Kris Bliss's obedience classes and found it to be quite beneficial. Her classes are conducted indoors on a rubber mat covered area free from distractions. There were two large German Shepards, one Golden Retriever, a young rambunctious male Rottweiler mix and our two Grey's. Every dog had a different personality and we were able to see how the success was mostly dependant upon the ability of the owner to establish "who's in charge", reinforcing good behavior and being consistent and patient. We were stisfied with the results and would recommend her to anyone. Bill Taylor - Fremont
We have completed the Basic Pet Manners and Pet Manners Level Two and are excited to share our experiences with Canine Bliss with you. Despite the fact that our dog offered challenges to us, Kris was determined to help us and our dog to overcome these difficulties. Kris' Knowledge and experience in dog handling and her dedication to her cause are very obvious as Kris offers instructions and demonstrations using her own dogs as examples. The sessions are fun for both the dogs and their owners because of Kris' positive and honest approach in the training process. Kris has given us the tools that we need. We learned a lot of very valuable information that will help us and our dog to have a very happy and healthy life together. Thanks Kris!!!!
Snip and Sharon Snider - Port Clinton
“Since I have been coming to class my dog has settled down a great deal. I have found keeping her busy is a great help. When we go for a walk I walk her not her dragging me. What a wonderful step forward! Having your dog think really helps. When they're thinking they're learning. Thanks again Kris. What a wonderful experience it has been been.”
Diane Mehling -- Fremont
"I thought we had our new puppy trained pretty good-sit-stay-down-come ect. Kris showed us some better ways and added new experiences to challenge our dog and us."
Barb and Randy Reisbach and Copper
"We as dog lovers sure feel a need to share our great experience with a really top notch dog trainer. We have been taught the proper way to work with our pets and be able to see how happy and well behaved they really can be. Thank you Kris!”
Pat and Randie Herzig
"We have had at least one dog usually a beagle for over 30 years and this was the first time we have gone to doggie school. What a positive experience. We had never had the "problems" with any of our other dogs that we have experienced with Rusty. The classes have been very beneficial, not only for Rusty, but for his humans. We have learned that he is not the boss. Not only have the classes been a learning experience for Rust and his humans, buy they have also been very entertaining."
Tom and Chris Munson and Rusty
"I would like to encourage anybody who would like to have a well-behaved dog to consider training with Kris. She does very well at conveying how to train your dog. I went to puppy pre-school and basic training with my chihuhua Sweetie. She has learned how to be polite towards others and loves being around other dogs and people. She has learned how to come when called, loose leash walking, sit, down, stay, and much more. I am definitely coming back to more classes and I hope anyone who reads this will come too. Thanks so much Kris for your valuable training skill and love for dogs to be well rounded."
Jamie Christopher and Sweetie
"This class has been great for our dog. Lots of helpful information. Zoe has flowered."
Ed and Judy Marher
"Friendly atmosphere, excellent facilities and resources; professional leadership, reasonable fees, timely advice and problem solving. Fun, informative, and effective."
Keith and Pat Siebert
"This was a good experience for both my dog and myself. I don't know who learned more, me or the dog."
Janet Quaintance
"This class was a tremendous help! We came into class with a 'crazy' dog and came out with an obedient, well rounded animal. Thanks so much."
Amber Haslinger
"This class helped me and Bear get to know each other and a great opportunity to socialize my dog with other people and dogs. Thanks a lot!"
Jim Dempster
"Very excellent class - the dog learns how to behave and even more important Kris teaches the dog owner how to control and train the dog. Every dog owner should be in these training classes."
Richard V. Kemp
"Besides great training methods, Kris has a lot of knowledge of dog behavior. She really helps you understand how your dog thinks & what methods are successful."
Judy Maher
"If you are thinking of having kids, get a dog and take dog obedience classes. The skills learned are very similar to those you need for parenting. Take it from a mother of five kids!" JF
"I am very glad I was told about Canine Bliss. I found the training for me and my new puppy very effective. Kris is very patient with us and very helpful with any problem areas we needed addressed. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with a new puppy that wants to learn basic obedience training."
Dorothy Palm
"I felt my dog and I both benefited from the class. Kris is a very learned intsructor and has a way of relating and teaching all temperaments of dogs."
Bonnie Mock
"My dog was on the shy side and didn't interact very well with others. By the end of the 5 weeks he was letting other people pet him. I highly recommend the Canine Bliss Dog Training. It is well worth your time & money."
Stacie Marquart & Rex
"Even though we had tried to train our dogs since puppies - they weren't really getting it and we obviously were confusing them. Taking them to Kris Bliss' obedience class brought a big turn around in their behavior and we know what we are doing too.
It's great to go on walks without all the pulling. They settle down quicker when people come over and sit for attention instead of jumping up. We are taking the next class for sure. (We have 2-7 month old 45 lb. Lab/shepherd mixes)."
Bonnie VanMeter
Toby and Ginger
"In just the second week of my class Ginger learned how to stop biting and learned how to stand. My dog learned alot in this class and learned really fast too!"
Maggie VanMeter
"This class was everything I could expect and more! I feel very confident I can handle any situation I might face while continuing the training of my dog!"
Jim Dempster
"I have taken at least 6 other dog training classes, given by different groups. I am a past member of the Tri-County Dog Training Club, and assisted and given dog training classes. This class has showed me alternative ways, not so stern, mean as correction with jerks on a choker collar, more food (clicker) rewards for attention, more positive ways to develop a strong, positive bond with your dog.
Kris has a lot of experience with many different kinds of dog training technigues and has used all that experience to teach the best way for the dog and owner. I would and have recommended Canine Bliss Dog Training."
Sharon Karlovetz
"We really enjoyed the basic obedience class offered by Canine Bliss. The small class size allowed personal attention to our progress and also any problems we had. The methods used were easy to learn and easy to repeat at home. We have already signed up for the Advanced class!"
Dennis Franklin
"Almost immediately my dog began walking the right way on a leash - from there very rapid improvements could be seen each day/class. I believe my dog enjoyed the class, it was good socialization, it was a bonding experience between my dog and I , and most importantly it taught ME correct training methods."
GG
"When we started classes with Jake we were just hoping to be able to take him on a leash without being led by him. Now we can actually take him out in public without being embarrassed! The classes were great and very helpful in many ways. We highly recommend Kris and her excellent skills."

"Canine Bliss was a LIFE-SAVER for me. Our family had a negative experience with puppy training in the past. I was not going to have a repeat performance with my newest pup! Kris is an awesome, no-nonsense instructor! I have learned so much. My puppy's behavior has improved, but we both have a long way to go. I am ging to continue taking classes as long as it is possible for me to do so! CONSISTENCY is the key to successful dog training! Don't give up when things get rough!"
