Why wait a few weeks?
We started almost immediately training Lorka in returning food (raw bone) in exchange for pieces of meat, leaving our bed or couch on command, walking on leash in the hall, "don't touch" and "come" commads, etc.
It's also a good idea to carry the pup for a walk (vaccinations!) and take him to various places to show him a bit of the world, traffic, people, and accustom him to the car (at the beginning just give him food there and play for a while). Of course such 'trainings' should be playful and very short, a few minutes every couple of hours

Belive me, it's much easier to teach the little puppy, for example that you have the right to remove anything from his mouth, than a big animal with wolf-like teeth.
