If I were ever to send my dog to a trainer I would want

#1A to know my dog is in good hands when it comes to feed, care, and overall humane treatment. (after seeing how some "pros" treat dogs you would know why I have this as my #1A)
#1B I would want to see some ribbons on his wall showing what he has accomplished. Just to make sure he's not just some internet trainer or somebody that likes to play dress up and go throw bumpers for dogs.

With that being said and being part of the hunt test community for a few years now I would recommend 2 people that could fit for you. (Not saying any other recommendations are bad at all, but if I were to pay another man to put his hands on MY dogs these would be them in South Louisiana for Hunt Test.)

Chuck McCall for AKC and UKC-Great guy, great trainer, and great dogs

Robert Authment for UKC-Great Guy, Responsible breeder, and from what I've seen has some nice dogs in UKC.

Another good thing is these trainers stay local year round, they don't winter up north to where you can't go see your pups progress.
