Pick up the dog training books by the Monks of New Skete

The Art of Raising a Puppy and also the book How to be Your Dog's Best Friend.

Also check with your public library, thay may even have the books there. I do dog training part time and when our students ask for good books to read, these are the 2 that we always recommend. You will learn a lot from them.
