NOTE about Gentle Leader: it does not work on dogs with a short snout as this one has. His dog is a Border Terrier Mix. He's already tried it (he didn't know about the disclaimer) and the dog had it off within 30 seconds.

This is why there are so many different tools out there - dogs are different.
Call your local shelter, pet store, vet's office, etc. Ask them for help with training. Look for AKC breeders in the area and ask them for help.
If they say they don't know of any training in the area, tell them you're looking for someone who could walk you through the basic training program once or twice so you can see how it should be done and then you can continue on your own. Offer to pay for their time or donate to the shelter.
There are knowledgeable dog people everywhere and most are willing to help if asked.
