Pet information
What book comes with information on pets and handleing them and their skills. I need to see how much it costs to train an animal.

Usually they have training costs at the end of a trainable creature in the monster manual. Though, no compendium for this sort of thing.
Listen up maggots, Mr. Popo's 'bout to teach you the pecking order.
It goes you, the dirt, the worms inside of the dirt, Popo's stool, Kami, then Popo.

That'd have to be discussed with your DM, but I'll extend a recommendation to him that you can show him.
Create a price for this kind of training, something like what Golems have when increasing hit dice (2000 x the next newest hit dice, I.E. going from 2nd to 3rd level would be 2000 x 3 in gold, one more level would be 2000 x 4, etc), and this requires a professional trainer for this sort of thing. Professional trainer as in someone with at least skill focus in sleight of hand.
Paying to increase hit dice should take a month of time per hit dice (so 3 months for 2nd to 3rd level, 4 months for 3rd to 4th, etc), and would reward one level of Expert each time. Considering the animals intelligence, it's likely that he'll simply gain one skill, two at most, these would be Sleight of Hand and either hide or move silently.
That's my suggestion at least. As for the time spent training an animal like that, just remember that it takes years to teach an ape basic sign language, so I'm being generous in this in fact.
