EXACTLY what I was going to suggest. She's just a baby and can be easily distracted by any and every thing. As she gets a little older and more "proofed" then praising during the act can follow.

A couple of good reads for you:

Mother Knows Best by Carol Lea Benjamin
How to Raise a Puppy You Can Live With, Rutherford and Neil
And, Puppy Kisses are Good For the Soul by Weinstein which was mentioned in the "Good Read" thread.
