Instructions
Step 1
Before training, the puppy should be walked, but not tired.
Step 2
Put a treat in a belt bag or pocket.
Step 3
Equip your puppy with some gear.
Step 4
It is best to train your dog at home first, where there are fewer irritants.
Step 5
Take a treat in one hand, raise it above the animal's head so that the puppy lifts its head, trying to get food. With the other hand, press on the dog's croup, lightly but confidently, while strictly and loudly saying "Sit!"
Step 6
Grasp the collar with one hand, pull back, with the other hand pressing the croup. Say "Sit!" When the puppy sits down, give a treat.
Step 7
Repeat this many times. After unquestioning execution at home, practice the command on the street. First in deserted, quiet places, then going out to the city center.
Step 8
If the puppy sits on one side, lift him up and sit correctly.
Step 9
During training, make a gesture with your hand, bending it at the elbow and raising your palm up. In the future, you can not say the command, but achieve its implementation only with this gesture.
Step 10
Once the dog has mastered the gesture command, practice distant obedience by moving a few meters away from the dog.
Step 11
The dog should not leave the place, not get up, until the next command.
Exercise from 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the age and condition of the dog.
Teaching this command can begin at the age of two months.
