It's a 20 mile drive. I have the time and want to. I just also want our dog to be 100 % the best he can be. I don't mind spending $1000 to get him trained. I also feel the training will be after we have made a large bond

He won't be ready to receive any sort of PPD training until he's 18 months old, if not 2 years old. Assuming that he's cut out for the work mentally and physically at that time. Most dogs are not. I'd be really suspicious of someone claiming to be able to turn out a PPD in a short period of time. I'd PM Will and ask him about this trainer.

Lauren Jeffery Webboard User Reg: 01-16-2010 Posts: 1389 Loc: Offline	There is a new video coming out about how to start a dog on bite work without a helper, I would check that out if I was interested in doing bite work with my dog. All of the Michael Ellis videos are really fantastic. Plus, private training for protection is really, really expensive. Do what you can on your own. Some really good trainers require two sessions a week at a $100 or more an hour.
