Black lab will be 2 years old on Sept. 1st…too late for obedience school?

Two weeks after we brought our black lab puppy home I found out I was pregnant. So, I started training him, but because the smell of the dog made me want to vomit after a while, he only received so much training. He knows to sit, heel and lay down. He knows come forward and go to his crate. He can even retrieve our newspaper. He knows not to jump when I tell him.

But, he’s hyper beyond belief and contantly underfood. When he’s outside he’s tripped myself, husband and my 78 year old father-in-law.

My mother-in-law suggested obedience school, but normally dogs go when they are puppies. I’ve also heard that it takes labs a few years to calm down, mostly 4 years. So, I don’t know.

My son is 10 months and access is very limited with the dog because of the dog’s hyper-ness.

What do you think? And, sure, my hubby should’ve taken the dog to obedience school since I could no longer train him, but we didn’t.

Thanks.
Thanks for your responses so far. :) Much appreciated. So, glad it’s not too late.
