I always find it beneficial to start with a dog that will chase a ball. And, since the title of the thread contains the word "Newbie", I suggest finding a training person or group that practices (and practices well) the discipline you intend to pursue and talk with them or take them with you when you choose a prospect. All the high tech performance parts in the world won't do you any good if the car you want to win races with has no motor.

A couple of rubber balls on a string, a tug, fur saver collar ( or prong if your dog needs it), short leash ( 4ft) , long leash (20ft). I forgot to add, food treats ( if the dog likes food)...a vest or item of clothing with big pockets to keep the balls/treats.

I agree with Duderino....Make sure the newbie knows exactly where to train after getting the right dog.
I spent 2 years researching the breed and the sport and eventually got my dog, Now my dog is 3.8 years old and I managed only a BH. It fustrates me to say that due to limited resources for good/ decent helpers, good/ decent clubs unavoidably have tight membership and there's no room for newbies!
