the best advice i can give is for the first month try and form a really good bond,lead work only,and once she loves you it makes training a thousand times easier,once shes sitting to the whistle and recalling to the whistle in the garden,then move on .but i find bonding with them first massively important.even if i bought a fully trained dog i would still follow the above,we all blow the whistle differently and if they dont know what you want its not their faught and obviously you cant correct them,to a dog things are black or white with nothing in between.i hope this helps all the best ryan
