House Breaking:
If you have more than one door, always use the same one so the puppy knows where to head if he has to go. I also recommend always taking your puppy to the same area outside initially so that the scent of his previous droppings will encourage him to go. When he goes outside, you should verbally praise him and then give him a small treat when you get back inside. Dogs respond fantastically to positive reinforcement and you will be surprised how quickly your pup will learn to go to the door. Once he has the hang of going outside to potty down, you can start to vary the door you use, and you will want to give him new areas to explore and use for pottying. Some dogs have been known to only go on one particular substance (eg: grass) if that was all they were exposed to and then will not go when introduced to new environs (eg:dead leaves). This can sometimes cause a problem if the dog's preferred medium is not available, so it is important to introduce your dog to varying types of earth.

Crate Training:
If you choose to crate train, the crate you use needs to be big enough for your dog to stand up, turn around, and lay down comfortably. Bedding for the crate should cover the crate floor. For the first few weeks with your new pup, you may want to just use a couple of old towels, or make sure you use a crate pad that is machine washable so any potty accidents are easy to clean up.
While you're crate-training, you absolutely must ignore your puppy's cries during the night. I know it will be very hard to do, and you'll probably lose some sleep for the first week, but I promise you it will be faster and easier for both of you if you don't come running every time he squeaks. Remember that your house is a completely new environment for your pup, so him not sleeping through the night is completely understandable.

Basic commands:
Teaching basic commands is usually best accomplished by using a combination of verbal commands (eg: sit!) and hand signals (eg: point down). This not only reinforces the idea of what you want the dog to do but also allows you, later on, to give commands without having to say a word as long as you have your dog's attention.
So, sticking with 'sit' as my example, you will want to start of by saying 'sit' while doing your hand signal and then gently pushing your dog's bottom down until he's in a sitting position. Then reward him with a small treat or even a piece of kibble. And repeat… and repeat… and repeat… I always do training in 10-15 minute sessions, so that the commands sink in, but the dog isn't overwhelmed. Once he gets one trick down, move on to another, and then the next. Try to vary which order you ask the tricks to be done in, however, so he doesn't skip from sit to down or sit to shake because you always ask him to sit and then lay down.
The hand signals I use are a dropped pointer finger for sit, a closed fist that moves downward for lay down, a flat palm for stay, drawing a circle in the air for rollover, a snap and point to myself for come, an extended hand for shake, a vertical hand for high five, etc. Of course, you can always see what makes sense and feels the most natural for you.

Hope this helps!

Be the pack leader. Be consistent, calm and keep with it.

Take your new baby to a puppy training class. Most trainers believe that the younger you start training the more quicker your dog with pick up things later in life, which is similar to humans.

Best of luck to you.

Another good thing to dog is to just get your puppy used to a leash by hooking it to the collar and playing. No puppy automatically knows what to do when you say stay, so if it gives you a dumb look don't worry too much, at least until the 20th or so try.

Do not get frustrated. This will confuse your puppy even more and sets them up for failure.

For housebreaking, look for dog training books by Brian Kilcommons (Good Owners Great Dogs is my favorite) or his mentor, Barbara Woodhouse.

Easiest way to housebreak is to crate the pup whenever you can't watch him and let him out to do his business every two hours. Carry him to the place outside where you want him to do this (makes it easier to clean up), praise him when he does it right. If he does make a mistake in the house, ignore him; clean it up with Nature's Miracle, which removes scent, too.

Good luck! Puppies are great fun!
