Kari Goin is a passionate dog trainer, animal advocate, and lifelong student of canine behavior. With years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and backgrounds, including rescues, fosters, and shelter dogs,

Kari has developed a training philosophy centered on understanding, communication, and partnership. Her approach goes beyond traditional obedience: she believes that thinking like a dog is the key to building trust, focus, and lasting behavioral success. By seeing the world through your dog’s eyes, Kari helps owners create relationships that are calm, confident, and joyful. 

In addition to training, Kari is the founder New Moon Pets, where she shares her expertise through workshops, courses, and one-on-one coaching. She combines practical instruction with real-world insights, empowering dog owners to solve behavior challenges while deepening the bond with their pets.

When she’s not training dogs, Kari enjoys fostering animals, experimenting with creative projects, and helping dog owners turn learning into a fun, positive experience for both human and canine.
