I was watching one of my tapes, I think it was 8 weeks to 8 month where ED mentions that the only correction he will give a put would be for not coming. What I would like to know is how he would correct a young pup for that?

Can't speak for Ed specifically, but it's usually done with a line or a rope, giving a quick pop on the collar, then reeling him in if he still refuses. It's not long before he gets it.
Modern theory is to use positive reenforcement with markers to build a solid recall before the pup is allowed to get very far away off-leash, as in his Basic Obedience video. If I'm not mistaken, Ed has learned more about positive reenforcement since that video was made.
BTW! That first part is not advice!!! That's the answer to your specific question.

I'm going with Duane on this.
I think I recall that you also got either Power of Markers or Power of Food? I'd watch the marker video too, along with (or right after) 8 to 8, because between the two you will get an overview of both "living with the puppy" AND the great details of training with markers.

Thank you, I agree with not spitting some out, on one walk my four month old rott picked up a broken beer bottle, (flat piece with glass attached). Not wanting to try to pull it out and risk cutting his mouth, I gave him a couple good pops until he dropped it. After that we worked on (drop it and leave it). Both a must know for safety of my dog.
