at 11 weeks its a little earlier then I would expect a breeder to let a pup go, but thats just a week shy of 3 months so I cannot complain.
For the potty training, the more active they are the more often they need to go out. I went with the BC close cousin in the form of an Australian Shepered. She was miss ADHD super hyper active puppy, and the more she played the more oops we had in the house. Right now focus on house breaking him, but by 4 months he is going to become a handful if you dont find him a job to do and start training him.
My aussie we started with fetch at 4ish months starting from about 6 feet away and actually bringing it back till about 6 months where I think she could have outrun a potatoe gun (never tried it but tempted.) During her obediance training (seriously join a class if your in the burbs) as its great refresher for anyone and great for the dogs social skills with other pups. During that time I learned the trainer had schools for agility. Brandy trained well but would never be competition, she would ignore me and run the weave polls just to show off.
We stuck with fetch and a harry homeowner version of jump ball. And to date the only thing I never got her trained to do was to load a modified ball thrower (detuned for a smaller yard) by herself. She insists on dropping the ball at my feet or throwing it at me (yes some are smart enough to figure it out.)
Best of luck on the energizer puppy.
