BBL,
Listen , little brother, you are at a perfect age to learn how to do this yourself. Do you have patience ? 20-30 min. a day to spend with your pup ? If so, then you can do this , it's not that hard and you and your dog will be way better off than if you had a pro do it. You have access to a great wealth of info via this forum , a luxury I lacked when I trained my first dog, so any questions you might have can be answered any one of the folks who frequent here. The moderators here,especially, are really on the ball even I don't always agree with 'em :toofunny: . Anyway, I'm excited for you and the prospects of your pup. Accept the challenge and do it yourself !!! :thumbsup:
