Not really, depending on how much you know, but even for a beginner it should be pretty simple. However, this depends on the dog's personality. Some are harder to train then others, but you should be ok.

Technically no they aren't a puppy, they are actually an adult after about 1-2 years but that doesn't mean they have to be large in size though. They also can still have the appearance of a puppy too.

Certainly a three year old dog can be trained...to do just about anything. The problem is that you may need to invest a tremendous amount of time trying to do so. Some breeds of dog are going to be more amenable to this type of training as well. For instance, it will be easier to train a Rottweiler to protect than say a Boston terrier. No slam on BT's, they are great dogs, but protection is not what they were bred for.

Not if it's male. ;-)

FEMALE dogs should ideally be spayed after 6 months and before her first heat. As she ages the likelihood of breast tumors, uterine infections, etc. increase.
