lee,
You are smart to stay with one training function with your first dog. Then after you get more experience under your belt go for a multi purpose dog.
My Police Textbook for Dog Handlers listed on my web will give you the fundamental things you need to get started.
If you later have more questions contact me and I will try to help. See my E-maill address.
