ZIPs served: 60712~9 mi from office

Lincolnwood is a small village right between Chicago and Skokie. Nice homes, small streets, a good park system.

Your quiet streets are good for dog walks. But quiet means every loose dog or surprise visitor stands out.

Dog Roar is based at 9960 Pacific Avenue, Franklin Park, IL 60131. We serve owners across Lincolnwood and the surrounding suburbs from this facility. Every program is run personally by Ray Bhimani, no rotation through a roster of trainers.
