Default German Shorthair pup help

I just got a German shorthair puppy and i was wondering if anyone could help me out with a few questions.

First i was wondering if it is a good idea to get my puppy nuetered or if will affect his hunting ability?

Also i was wondering what the best first steps were to take when starting to train the dog to spell and point birds, i am getting the basic commands and yard training done now but just wanted to know where to go after the basics.

Is a shock collar a good idea for training or is there any other training aids anyone could recommend?

Thanks for any help you guys can give me
