Awesome! Please train her well using positive reinforcement (treats for a properly performed command) and not negative punishment - and pleeeease don't ignore her. She will need attention throughout her life, not just a leash on a tree, which too many owners do these days.

When you say negative punishment you probably mean positive punishment (applying an aversive stimulus in order to reduce a target behavior). Hitting or saying "no" are examples of positive punishment.
Negative punishment is removing a positive stimulus in order to reduce a target behavior. A good example of negative punishment would be to turn away/ignore the dog (remove attention) when it tries to jump up on you.
