Puppy Classes
The earlier you start training, the easier it will be!
"Our puppy Riley is in his 3rd set of classes from Aimee and I couldn't be more pleased. The personal attention she gives to every dog in the class is outstanding. She is always open for questions and is just a phone call away which is necessary when you are training a puppy. Her training has done wonders for our puppy and her passion for dogs shows through her work. I recommend Dogz'N Harmony to everyone I know!" -Emily B. & Riley of Clarendon Hills
