Congrats on the pup! I recommend a book by John and Amy Dahl called "The 10-Minute Retriever". It's aimed at training gun dogs (which labs should be!), but has lots of good info even if you don't hunt your dog. Do your research on spay and nueter...and when it should be done and why. Good luck and rest up...I just got a new pup two weeks ago, a wire-haired pointing griffon...and I haven't slept through a whole night since!
