Reviews Summary
Reviewers lauded Tony’s ability to rehabilitate troubled dogs and improve their behavior during walks. One person had an 8-year-old German Shepherd called Hero listed as vicious, leading to him going after dogs and people due to trauma. They found Tony, who coached to change the owner’s life by explaining boundaries and training tactics to keep Hero safe while walking. Since the second session, signs of success have gotten better beyond heroic’s change on the dangerous list. Tony told them how far to go with Hero because of the trauma and did not promise more sessions. The former situation has changed, leading to happiness, and the reviewer is confident while walking hoping the dog might flip. Tony is an honest expert with excellent dog training skills and respect. These reviews demonstrate it, and the fact that he evaluates well an animal before creating a plan or encouraging the owner also contributes to his success. If your dog needs rescue or training, contact a dog training guru for a complete and safer walk. Praise includes the lessons being simple and exciting. Training can lead to beginners knowing the essential home commands and games one can play with them.
