START WITH THE BASICS LIKE SIT AND STAY.
sit stay and work on leash training.
I start mine when they come home or at about 6-8 weeks
Short sessions and many times per day.
Good luck with your new pet
You can start with everything. Sit, stay, down, heel, leave it, etc. Once you get her to sit (it may take a while) other commands will get easier for her to learn. The sooner they learn the better behaved they are. And you can take her to obedience class generally when they are 3 months old.
Come is crucial! In situations where you need her to come back to you it can be a life saver. The car rides and other things you mentioned are good ideas too.
sit *s*
here is link to my blog on how to train on those comands, grats on housebroken puppy

also with loud noises start them off in far distance while engaging dog in an activety of distraction, then slowly as they show they can deal with it bring them closer (trained dogs against fearing shot sounds)
and yeah get started on the leash training (if havent done it before then consult a book or trainer), if you train a puppy corectly then you wont have to deal with training collars for adult dogs who tug and pull on leashes.
Sit, stay, and POTTY TRAINING. Also, if you will have problems with the barking, then you should train that too.

Socializing. This means exposing her to all different kinds of people, dogs, and other animals, as well as different sights, sounds, and experiences (for example the thunder or loud bass that you mentioned).
You can start with the basic training now. Start with sit. Hold a treat in your hand, wait for her to sit. When she does, say “sit” and give her the treat. If you need to firmly “guide” her into sit position you can do so by pressing her back end towards the floor.

Good start.
If you dog is able to pay attention, you can work with 5 basic commands, sit, stay, down (lay down), heel and place.
Give her the sit command, then help her to sit. Praise. Give her the heel command and start walking. Keep her right beside you and on the same side each time (your choice). Then stop with a sit command, and help her sit. Praise. Do this a few times. When she starts to get the hang of it, you can correct her. You can mix it with down command. To get her to go down, step on the leash and apply gentle pressure to start to get her down. Give her a hand command with that. Put the palm of your hand over her head (not on her head). The place command is helpful with visitors, or dealing with trouble, etc. Place a towel, blanket, or other “bed type item” that you want your dog to be on. Tell the dog place and take the dog over to the towel. As long as the dog is anywhere on the towel, praise the dog. The dog can stand, sit, pace, lay down, whatever just as long as she is on the towel.
Vaccuums are good to get her used to. Put treats on it while it is off. Put treats on it while it is on, but not moving. Then finally when it is moving, just let her be around it.
Have fun, and way to go with what you are doing.
You should work on the basics like sit, and walking on a leash. Don’t expect too much of an 11 week old puppy on the leash, however, as they are just getting used to it. After your pup has gotten used to the leash and the tugging on the collar, you can begin having her sit, occasionally, during your walk. Another very important thing to do with a puppy, is socialization. A dog needs to be socialized from very early puppyhood, to people and to dogs. Due to the nature of German Sheherds, they need this so that they will not become overly aggressive. Believe me, dogs are usually naturally protective and the smarter ones are even more so. SOCIALIZE your pup by taking her to the dog park, on walks and allowing people to pet her, and allowing lots of guests to enter your home and getting to know the pup. In this way, you will be much less likely to have a dog who will not allow your own friends into your home. Do not teach your dog to protect your home until is is an adult, and truthfully – they usually learn this all on their own and the common problem is finding out how to keep them from barging at the door or windows when someone walks by, or comes to the door.
