Thanks any help appreciated

She is VERY CUTE!

I find that if you put a collar and a light leash on her in the house she will get use to it. As for walking, it ill come in time,

When I walk I keep treats in my pocket, reward for walking nicely stop still when she pulls and when someone comes, I put mine in a sit wait and step on the leash so she can't jump. (just long enough so she can sit, but can't get paws off the ground. Lots of praise for good sit and good behavior.

Keep your walks short too to keep her wanting more and so you don't have to hall her home

I was playing around with my neighbors lab who comes over for unannounced visits today. He is 100 pounds of crazy jump up fun. I have decided if I am going to walk him he has to be better behaved. This is what worked with him (keep in mind this dog is 2. I'm not sure if it works for pups or not).

I put him on a leash and walked as if he wasn't there. He pulled we'd go backwards, sideways, walk in a circle into him, do an opposite circle where he'd have to go around me ect ect. Just keep him on his toes having no idea which way I'd be going. I'd run, walk, stop.... pretty much so he had to pay attention to me. Within 10 minutes he understood and I walked him home on a slack leash, much to the amazement of his owner.

Someone else probably has a better suggestion but it worked well with that dog. I also did that with my two Border collies.
