About Us
Welcome to Tony’s Tails, where our lead dog trainer, Tony, brings a lifetime of dedication and expertise to every wagging tail. As a distinguished graduate of Tarheel Canine Academy in 2006, Tony has over three decades of experience in canine training and care. His journey as a dog trainer began well before his formal education, driven by a passion for enhancing the lives of dogs of all breeds and ages.
Tony’s skills extend beyond basic dog training; he was the proud owner and operator of Rizzo Ranch LLC from 2005 to 2017. This successful kennel, known for producing multiple AKC Confirmation Champions, has provided Tony with invaluable insights into dog behavior and breeding, further refining his approach as a dog trainer.
As a father of three, Tony infuses family values into his training methods. He firmly believes that every dog, whether a playful puppy or a seasoned older dog, benefits immensely from a training approach rooted in positivity and patience. His training philosophy is centered around the idea that a meaningful and lasting bond can be formed between you and your dog through education and positive reinforcement.
At Tony’s Tails, our mission is to help families and individuals experience the joy of living with a well-trained dog. Tony, as an expert dog trainer, focuses on positive training techniques to establish a foundation of trust, respect, and mutual understanding between you and your canine companion.
