Hi, I also live in the Chicago area, and just added a GSP pup to my family. This breeder was highly reocommended from a gentalman I met at a wingshooting clinic. He is located in Bristol Wisconsin, just across the border. He also trains the dogs as well, but recommends that they be between 5-6 months old. If you visit the website
www.sundancekennels.com it should help you out alot.
