Reddit reviews Proactive Puppy Care: Preventing Puppy Problems

I wouldn't do frisbee that involves leaping until she's at least a year old. Ball fetching, for sure, but again, not the high jumping. She's going to need to go out after waking up, which will be frequently all through the day because she's probably going to nap a lot. And her walks won't be able to be long at first, either. You're in an excellent position to be able to play with her whenever she's awake, so she will tell you how much exercise she needs. You can use part of her food ration as treats to reinforce the behaviors you want, too.

Being cuddly reminds me of my Anita. I got her from the pound; someone had dropped off a litter of Dals, and they had been in foster. So I went in to see them and there were two in the bin - she who became Anita, and one other, who was just beautiful. I took them both out to play, and the pretty one tooled off down the hall while Anita plopped down in my lap. Sold! She wasn't especially pretty, but sweet as the day is long. I already had one Dalmatian, who was the typical high-drive type, and was happy to have the opposite. :-) I miss them, but as I get older and more decrepit, I'm wanting smaller dogs that I can pick up and carry should the need arise.

I'm going to recommend this puppy training book written by a positive-methods dog trainer. She talks about how to keep your puppy from developing behavior issues. :-) Much easier to keep them from happening than to train them out of issues after they develop.
