German Shepherd Obedience

Need help finding German Shepherd Training service.?
I have a 4.5 month old male German Shepherd and I’m looking for a training service. I live in small town in Florida and would have to travel, but I wouldn’t mind. I’m looking for basic obedience and protection training. If anyone knows a reputable company or person, please let me know.
Thanks 
Protection training comes an extensive period of time after loads of obedience training. A dog needs to have a perfect grasp of obedience and be 100% reliable in it before any responsible protection trainer will even consider training a dog.
