I just got a 5 month old puppy. Is it to early in our relationship or for her age to start obediance training?

Full Question:
I have just received a 5 month old puppy she seems to have a great temperment and self confidence. I have only had her for 3 weeks. Is it to early in our relationship or for her age to start obediance training? I've already started her on the crate training program but I'm not sure if I am putting to much on her to soon by beginning basic obedience...

You can start training at 7-8 weeks. If you are not a student of marker training I would highly recommend this method for your new pup.

I would read our article on training dogs with Markers.

I would recommend the following:

Your Puppy 8 weeks to 8 Months
The Power of Training Dogs with Markers
The Power of Training Dogs with Food

This will give your puppy a great and positive start!
