Trained Animals in PFS / Handle Animal skill

A friend told me that Summon Animal spells are real useful. I would like to get a "Pet". "PF PC Animal Archive" has lots of Animals for sale and some come trained.
How does Training a animal (Dog of Wolf)using the Handle Animal skill work in PFS? It takes 4 weeks to train a Animal for Combat in the Core Rulebook.
(This is for my 1st level Cleric for Defence/protection.) Is it done during the "Day Job check"?

PFS FAQ: Do purchased animals come fully trained or do I have to train them myself?
How can I teach tricks to an animal using Handle Animal?

Your purchased animal won't get better as you level (even if it's expensive enough to take you 3 scenarios to afford) and will cost actions to control, so you might want to think if those ranks in Handle Animal will help you with anything else. It's interesting you mention summoned animals, which might offer some ongoing use for the skill.

Thank you. UR right.
