How to teach your dog to sit

A simple way to get your dog to sit.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Your dog's favorite treat

1. Stand in front of your dog and show them a treat so they will face you.

2. Do not let the dog jump up on you.

3. Hold the treat just behind the dog's head and say "sit." This will cause the dog to look back and automatically sit.

4. When your dog sits get excited! Say "good sit, good boy/girl" it also helps to say "good _______, good sit _____" and insert their name in the blank.

Tips & Warnings

• Always have treats in your pocket to test your dog throughout the day!
