We have a 3 year old Golden. He's been to puppy classes. Actually, he's a really good dog in most cases. However, we are planning to have kids soon, and there are several issues we have concerns with once kids come to be.
We are looking for a dog trainer who takes the dog for a period of time to work with them. Its mainly because we are suckers, and our dog is to damn cute, and he knows it. We have no will power. We are just mortal humans, and he is cute dog
But with the possibility of having kids soon, we know its best for dog and human if we get a few things addressed now before we have the kids.
Any suggestions on good dog trainers in WI , or Northern IL, heck even Eastern MN would be great. Thanks in advance.

PS: I've already searched the web. I'm looking for maybe some personal experience, or some one who knows someone type relpies.

Good for you for putting in the time & effort to train your dog so that he becomes a better family member!
Try these excellent sites. Gotpetsonline even has discussion forums where you can post your questions & speak with professional breeders, vets & trainers.
www.gotpetsonline.com
www.petfinder.com
There soooo many different training techniques but one thing that you will find of importance in all of them is consistancy.
Just like with your kids. Your dog is at an age where he's gonna test your limits & if you let him get away with a certain behavior once then he'll think he can do it time & time again!
I hope I could help & Good Luck!!!!!
