Thanks for all the advise, I was planning on doing crate training.
We do have a big back yard, but I'm hoping he dog will spend most of his time inside.

pointdablame, I'll take a look at he leader of the pack.

Thanks

SithMaster:
point did you recommend that book because the author was talking about it on the Today Show this morning?

Be prepared to spend at least an hour a day playing flyball, teaching it agility, or letting it herd your kids.

Get him a really awesome costume for Halloween and toys.  They love toys.

One of the books I bought  The Art of Raising a Puppy
recommends using the choke collar. But Since I found a bunch of sites that recommend against it. So I think I will try with out he choke collar first.

Thanks

ChadTower:

 I helped train a lot of dogs as a kid.  I usually stay out of the whole training methods debate... but I do chime in with advice to avoid a choke collar.  There are a hundred ways to train a puppy that aren't painful like a choke collar.

tommy:
You don't need to almost choke your dog to death to get him to learn and follow directions. With chad on the other hand, it might work best.
