Tony
Bought up in the City of London, and moving to Essex in 2001, Tony's childhood pets include rabbits, hamsters, tropical fish, terrapins, a canary and finally his own dog! But before his parents backed down, little Tony fantasised of owning his own four legged friend, by purchasing various dog leads, collars, bowls and toys from their local pet shop - true story!
After 34 years in the financial sector in the City, Tony took the plunge and joined Stock Dogs along side his wife Rhian, to finally follow his passion and dreams.
Tony's primary role is now within daycare and occasionally when required, picks up and drops off our canine guests. If you see Tony out and about, give him a wave!
