Lab training...

I have a 12 week old black lab female and just started looking for training options in the MS/LA area.
Any recommendations? And how long will she likely be gone, and what can I expect as far as $?
ETA: I really won't have time to train her myself because I will be studying for the bar.
Thanks.

Good luck on the bar. No idea about training a lab but I can give you advice on how to train a wiener dog.

my fam uses Wonderlab Kennels for their 2 chocolate labs. 1 has achieved every level possible. The other just started.

I know I am going to catch it from some for this, but if you dont have time to train it, are you going to have time to reinforce the training? One of my favorite quotes is from UCLA coach John Wooden "If you dont have time to do it right, when are you going to have time to do it again?"
Not saying this is you because you are getting opinions and making decisions based on what you can gather but to many people want "instant" dog. They dont give themselves honest answers to questions such as Do I have the time? Do I have the patience? do I have the money for proper care? and never admitt that the real reason they want a dog is because it looks cool. In the end they wind up with an unstable dog that makes the owner and itself unhappy. When a horse wins the Kentucky Derby ever notice that the trainer gets the glory. Its because he did the work. The owner just had the money. I'm not trying to put down training schools because I do understand the need for them, but personally I dont want to own someone elses work.
