I'm guessing there's info out there, but I didn't see it. I apologize if there is, and please redirect me if so. If not, I'm wondering if there's a list of things to NOT do with your puppy when you get him/her? Like what should you not allow right from the start?
For instance, I know that a couple would be:
1) Do not let puppy jump on you.
2) Do not let puppy bite at you.
What other "no-no's" are there out there that need to be instilled right from the beginning?? We're getting our 8-week old puppy in two days, and I want to make sure to do it right from the get-go!
Or, would even love to hear what are good habits to fall into right away as far as behavior goes. Hope I'm not asking too much!
Thank you!

I would look at Dr. Ian Dunbar's two books before/after bringing home puppy. I'll attach links. He talks about the most essential things and gives you a timeline by when they need to be complete. For example, teaching bite inhibition up to a certain point and then transitioning to no biting.
