My dog is with Marcus Bice at Mulberry Creek Kennels in Fortson just north of Columbus. Have been really pleased with the results so far. Going to run him in his first UKC hunt test in Rome next month.

Please don't pick a trainer based on how close you live to them choose the one that's gone do the most for your dog and your money. Check out Marty Griner at Briar Creek Southern Kennels in Grovetown.

Middle Ga has a hunt test coming up soon you could go and see what is going on. maybe meet some of the pros that are showing up there and like it was said before see each pros style. also meeting them there in person alot better than talking to them on the phone.

Tmbdudley I'd find the closest Retriever club and join and train with them ... usually some very knowledgeable amateur trainers

Looks like the closest club to me is
Old South HRC in Covington area.
Anyone have any experience with them?

I don't have experience with that club. That being said...when I got my first dog I had zero experience in dog training. One thing I have learned about the dog training community, Pro and amateur, they are not condescending and for the most part root for every dog to succeed. Really glad I got into it. Great group of people. Give the club a shot.
