Are you training for upland or waterfowl?  Andy Fontenot is in Centralia, and is good for waterfowl.

+1 for Andy. Its who I train with. PM if you have questions. Heard good things about Tuttle but no personal experience with him. He may be more willing to take you on as an hourly client also.

Butch Higgins in Cathlamet is great. He has trained 2 of my dogs and runs at the National level. Great guy. Google him and check him out.
