Dogs In Harmony

I'm so thankful to Shanni and team for helping me build stronger communication with my dog. He has improved immensely with his impulse control—specifically his over-excitement and jumping when greeting people. I wanted to leave equipped with the right tools to manage his energy in public, and Shanni provided exactly that. It was important to us that the process was positive and enjoyable for him. He absolutely loved attending — he always got in the car without a fuss, and as soon as we got close to the facility, he would instinctively sit up and eagerly look out the window, ready to get to work. I highly recommend Shanni and the entire team at Dogs in Harmony for anyone looking for professional, effective, and compassionate training!

I've been taking my lab puppy here for puppy school since he was 13 weeks old (he is now 5 months) and have had the best experience! The trainers that work with him really care and give him good individual attention that has really helped with his training. He is always excited to go to puppy school and comes home happy and tired. We've also attended some group classes, which have shown us how to keep up the training that he learns in puppy school. It's been a great way for him to socialize with other dogs and lay the foundation for establishing good behavior in the fun and safe environment!

I can't thank Dogs In Harmony enough - you guys made being a first time dog mom a seamless and smooth experience! Coconut went to Harmony School and Harmony High from the time she was 12 weeks old to the time she was 7 -8 months old. Her confidence skyrocketed and she learned how to play and interact with other dogs, walk on a leash, and do her alone/crate time with ease. Shanni and her team were always there (even outside of school hours!) to answer any questions I had and to provide reassurance and great advice. If you are a first time dog owner and want to give your puppy an excellent foundation I highly recommend Dogs in Harmony!

Sending our puppy to Shanni was the greatest decision we've ever made. First of all, Shanni is among the warmest, kindest, smartest people I've ever met. She's sincere and passionate about helping dogs become their best selves, and helping their people learn how to support that. We noticed after the first day that our puppy was learning so much. Shanni focuses not only on obedience and socialization, but also on impulse control, focus, and the holistic well-being and nurturing of the dog. She'll also work on specific behaviours if you ask for help, which has been really wonderful. We enrolled in Harmony School, and took some group lessons, and then by the second week already knew we were going to re-enroll in Harmony High. I can't say enough about how wonderful this program is, as well as Shanni and her team!

We are so thankful to Shanni for helping us build stronger communication with our dog. We started with 1:1 lessons and once we heard about Harmony High, we did not hesitate to sign up. Our dog has improved immensely with his impulse control and we feel equipped with the tools to support his continued growth in this area. It was important to us that our dog not only “got trained”, but has a positive and enjoyable learning process. As first time dog owners, we also were looking for a trainer who would be patient and supportive towards us. Shanni checked all the boxes! Our dog absolutely loved attending the private lessons and Harmony High- he always got in the car without a fuss and when close to the facility, he instinctively sat up and eagerly looked out the window. I highly recommend Shanni and Dogs in Harmony!
