Training would probably be Lesser Strengthen Mind (Altered Trait) rather than Lesser Create Mind. The base would be a 0 point feature (basically as untrained dogs are less useful), but every 1 CP in skills/techniques would increase the cost by +1. Technically, RPM does not specify rules for instilling skills and techniques, but I believe that anything up to (Attribute)+5 would be lesser while anything beyond that would be greater. A much cheaper version though would be to find an existing dog and make it a loyal pet through magic.
