re: Dog Trainer: Who should I use?

I just got a lab/brittany spainel mix that I was looking to get trained, but I'm just going to do it myself. It's not the cost that really bothers me, it's the time that it would be away. I'd rather build a bond with the dog than send it away for 4-6 months.
Now, I've never trained a dog before, so I have no idea how this is going to turn out. Reading as much as I can and getting advice from people I know who train.

For basic obediance I have kept mine in the house as puppies. This way I am always interacting with them. They learn my language and I learn theirs.
Best way I learned to make one stay until commanded is dont let them eat until you tell them too. make them sit. Put food out. Wait for a while then tell them to eat. They will pick it up very quickly.
There are some really good tips and books out there. Obviously, the more you read and enlighten yourself. The better you will be at training.

Patience is by far your best friend while training a dog.
