We cannot say enough good things about Tony and Lillie. Most people bring home a young puppy and struggle with the “typical” puppy behaviors. As experienced German shepherd owners within days of bringing Sutton home at 9 weeks we knew he was no ordinary puppy. We searched desperately to find a trainer that had experience with high drive working lines and found Tony. Tony came for an evaluation a few days after speaking with him, he recognized what we needed to change and acknowledged the challenge our 11 week old puppy presented. Not only did Tony consistently wow us with his skills, he went above and beyond helping us research our puppy’s lineage to find more answers for his behaviors. After only a few lessons we were able to restore peace in our home, manage overreactive puppy behaviors, and have an age appropriately behaved dog. Tony was able to listen to what we wanted and use his expertise in training methods to set clear and defined expectations. At only 10 months old Sutton gets so many comments about how well behaved he is anywhere we go. Tony and Lillie make sure that once you sign on you have the support you need no matter when. We are excited to have found friends and professionals we trust with our crazy boys. We will be lifelong customers of Precision Canine Performance. If you are looking for a trainer who is honest and compassionate about his job, Tony is the best in town
Tony and Lillie are absolutely the most amazing people and trainers! We were having a difficult time with our new puppy (Theo) and didn’t know where to start with him until we found Tony and Lillie. They went above and beyond with Theo and the amount of patience they had with him was amazing. We noticed changes just after the first week of training. Towards the end he was a completely different pup. We were unaware of what his actual breed was due to what we were told from the rescue place had told us and Tony was able to inform us of his actual breed which put into perspective of why he behaved the way he did and what we needed to do differently. He also made us familiar with different types of collars that were the safest option with Theo and leashes as well. I’m extremely thankful we found them and highly recommend Tony and Lillie to anyone who needs a reliable and efficient dog trainer!
Tony and Lillie are worth every penny!! Mala stayed for about 6 weeks of training and Shes a totally different dog! Very well behaved now and listens and reacts to every command.

They are great people and are highly recommended!
Tony is the trainer you have been searching for!
Originally we asked Tony to help with Finn, our 2yo Chessie/ husky mix because he was aggressive towards other dogs, and fearful of children.
Tony helped us understand where these issues came from, and began training both us and Finn on how to best deal with these situations. Finn is extremely sensitive and a crybaby, and would get scared at almost anything. Nevertheless Tony is knowledgeable and he knew how to introduce obedience in the best way for our dog. We spent most of our time in obedience and social training, which paid dividends in the long run. We noticed dramatic positive changes in our dog after working with Tony, Finn was happier, sociable, and reliable in situations which would have made me nervous in the past.
I would consider my dog to be a very difficult case, but Tony did not shy away and laid down the foundation for Finn to succeed. Tony also educate us on how to maintain a healthy relationship with our dog. Finn is a completely different dog now, he is happy, full of energy and loves to learn new things.
If you need some real, no nonsense dog training, Tony is your guy!
My dog Sadie came from the shelter and thus had several issues we had to work on. She was so reactive I was absolutely terrified to walk her on my own until I met Tony. Tony gave me all of the necessary tools so I could feel confident handling my dog on my own. He is very patient as he teaches you everything you need to practice in between sessions, and was available via text or phone if I had a question. Tony reassured me along the way that with practicing the training techniques consistently Sadie would improve. By practicing his training tips she has come SUCH a long way in just a few months! I am so grateful to see how far Sadie has come obedience wise and most of all reduction in reactivity wise.
Furthermore, it is very evident the love he has for dogs so you can feel comfortable with him handling your fur child. My dog was always so excited to see him! She even boarded at his house and it went great. He sent photos and videos so I knew she was happy while playing in his big yard with the other pups who were boarded!
