Congratulations on your new puppy! Dog training is complex and I would recommend to start reading a few books about how to train dogs. There are many methodologies out there and you should find the one that works for you and Coco! You could also hire a dog trainer who would be able to give you hands on lessons which can prove immensely helpful! I hope this helps!!!
