I have a young viszla that have worked with myself while she was a puppy and her first season was great. She took naturally to pointing, retrieving took a little work though but she became a solid hunter. However her second season was not as stellar, and I do blame myself for not devoting as much time to her off season training. I worked with her sporadically, but Army life got in the way a lot. Now I'm deployed until late summer to Afghanistan and unless I have my wife take her to a trainer she won't get any training at all before I return. So the meat and potatoes of it is, can anyone recommend a trainer that isn't more than a few hours from Ft. Drum? I'm doing online searches, but the internet can make anybody look good and I have heard horror stories about bad trainers.
