We have a highly spirited/exuberant/crazy one-year old beagle who needs some leash and obedience training. She doesn't have an aggressive or mean bone in her body and I wouldn't want someone to "break" her or put her on one of those pronged collars, just teach her manners. Ideally, someone who could come in a couple of times a week and take her out for a couple of hours and train her in basic commands. (Note -- she is NEVER alone, and gets 4-5 walks a day -- this is not a case of a dog who is bored, lonely, or underexercised. She is simply very high-spirited, puppyish, untrained, and just plain nuts).
So, recommendations on your firm but understanding dog trainer?
