Another thing I would do is watch a lot of YouTube training clips about training puppies. Click on only the ones with a lot of clicks as usually those are the best. You may be uninteresting to your dog in the way you approach him to train, don't praise or treat in the manner he needs to stay interested - and many dogs don't want to work at first unless highly motivated, or are impatient or otherwise sending him signals you are unhappy with him and he wants to get away. Watching really good trainers at work with puppies will show you the best of the best techniques for getting and keeping a puppy's attention and about how long to keep up the lesson. That is often the reason a dog walks away besides disinterest, fear/anxiety about your attitude or lack of patience - he's young and other things get his attention sometimes. Watching good trainers work will show you how to keep that attention on you and make him WANT to work. Each dog is different and if you got a more independent or self-motivated dog - a dog that thinks for himself - than your previous dogs, you have got to and can find a way to get this guy interested - you just need to watch the experts do it. Watch lots of videos on puppy training - not dog training. Confine your watching to that of good trainers working with puppies and how they deal with wandering off, etc.
