Angel Cake became extremely animal aggressive at about 3 years old, not knowing how to handle it I kept her isolated to keep her and everyone else safe for YEARS. For years we, as a family, suffered. Thanks to Tony's dedication, knowledge, and patience we can enjoy long walks together. Cake gets to be a dog again! He truly gave my dog her life back, and he gave my family their dog back. I interviewed several local dog trainers before picking Tony, because I knew how difficult my dog was I am so glad we picked him! We moved in the middle of our training sessions and it caused a whole new distraction for our girl, but with his help we were able to power through. Thank you so much!!! More...

Had our puppy for almost 6 weeks and we got no improvement in the way the puppy reacts to strangers. He did bring him back with a chocker spiked collar and tried to show that he was better on walking with a leash. Finally we had to give up the puppy and we are consulting with our lawyer to regain our money from K9 Oceans. More...

Tony came to our home for the initial consultation and within 1 hour he had Zoe paying attention to him and ultimately got her to do what he wanted without saying one word! Zoe will be going for the 2 week training. I will give you all an updated review after that 2 week course. Keep an eye out for it. She goes 6/28 or 6/29. Take care! More...

Here is scrappy - the love of my life. An abused shelter dog scared of his very own shadow and everything else you can imagine. He’s been with Tony for a little over 8 weeks now. Scrappy is making such huge strides....walking on the leash, going on his place, sitting, and laying down. But that isn’t the big development. Tony has gotten my baby boy to not be so scared, he’s almost like a new baby boy. Getting more self secure every day. I can’t wait to see where he’ll go with Tony. I can’t recommend him enough!

We have used Tony as our Naples Dog Trainer for 3 years now. Our Golden Retriever was a VERY difficult puppy, but with Tony's help, he is now well trained, a certified therapy dog, and a family pet. Riley still loves going to classes on Saturdays, and interacting with adults, children, and friends in assisted living centers. Before Tony, we didn't know how (or if) we would make it through the years of puppy hood. Now - we couldn't imagine life without him. Thank you Tony! More...

Just read a bad review about Dr Dhillon, and all i can say is this, i have been under this Doctor for 6 years, and i unfortunately have many medical problems that keep sending me back to this surgery and his other surgery in Pendeford, and in this time i have built a rapport with Dr Dhillon, and i have to say he has been brilliant, no matter what is going on, he finds time to see me, and i am not just a number (which is how other GP`s have made me feel) he genuinely cares and will fight your corner. .. can not rate him highly enough. rare breed of Doctor in my opinion, he actually cares about his patients.

Tony was so helpful with our dog, Mo. He helped us understand how to motivate Mo to try new things. Tony promotes clear communication between owner and dog, and is great at showing owners how a balanced training method leads to a happy, well-balanced family companion. Thanks, man!

I highly recommend Tony and Oceans K9 training ! Tony is truly THE dog whisperer. Our Belgian /Shepard mix was unruly and had zero focus , on top of that she was not food motivated. Tony took her for boarding for a few weeks and we got back our girl with manners focus and a keen willingness to work. His style is loving and gentle and his work ethic is incredible. He even kept her a few extra days without and extra charge because he didn’t want to bring her back unless she was sharp with her new skills !! I would never go to anyone else , he has his “dogs in a row “ 5 star ⭐️ all the way ! Thank you for everything!! More...

AMAZING DOG TRAINING SERVICE!! Tony not only teaches your dog how to behave, he specializes in teaching the owner(s) to properly communicate with their dog. Oceans K9 made training my dog positive and educational. Previous to this my dog would jump up, pull on the leash, and did not understand his boundaries in the house. After joining Oceans K9, my dog and I have so much confidence together and I get compliments about how well behaved my dog is everywhere I go. If you want real results with your dogs behavior then this is your company to go to. The first evaluation is free so you have nothing to lose. Thank you Oceans K9 ????. More...

What do you love most about your job?
As a dog trainer, what I love most about my job is witnessing the transformative journey that dogs and their owners embark on together. The joy of observing dogs grasp new concepts, develop positive behaviors, and strengthen their bond with their owners is incredibly fulfilling. Each day brings unique challenges and opportunities to make a positive impact on the lives of both pets and their human companions. It's immensely rewarding to play a role in fostering better communication, understanding, and happiness within these special relationships.
What inspired you to start your own business?
The inspiration to start my own dog training business stemmed from a deep passion for dogs and a genuine desire to enhance the lives of both pets and their owners. Having witnessed the transformative power of effective dog training in fostering better relationships and communication, I wanted to create a space where I could share my expertise and contribute to the well-being of the local dog community. Starting my own business allowed me the freedom to implement personalized, positive reinforcement-based training methods tailored to the unique needs of each dog, ensuring a positive and impactful experience for both pets and their owners
