Hmm, well that's a lot to think about. First off, I'm sorry for the loss of your Houdini. Second, new puppy equals new training and you MUST be consistent. Is your husband willing to help you train the new pup? You have a list of of what was wrong with the last pup's behavior, use it as a check list. Make a check list for the new pup of things you want/need it to learn. Focus less on tricks and more on behavior.
