<P>i have a 10 month old lab I'm looking to&nbsp;have trained. He has a lot of the basics but I don't have the time he really needs. Anybody know of someone in the Toledo or not to distant area?</P>

Is there a particular reason you are looking for someone local?&nbsp; Be aware that many pros fill up quickly in the spring and the "door" may be closed already.&nbsp; Have you considered Jim Beverly?&nbsp; He is an OW sponsor.&nbsp;&nbsp; There is Randy Ward in Defiance (http://stoneylanekennels.com/).&nbsp; Not sure if he is taking any dogs right now.&nbsp; I'd recommend calling him, he may not answer emails.<br> <br>

Just stumbled across this article about choosing a trainer and thought it might be of help:<br> <br> http://www.huntersmarsh.com/huntersmarshkim'stips&amp;articles/Kims_Tips&amp;Articles_V.htm<br>
