To train a puppy to sit, you can follow these steps:
-
Start with some treats to use as positive reinforcement.
-
Hold a treat close to your puppy's nose and slowly move your hand up, allowing their head to follow the treat and their bottom to lower.
-
As their bottom touches the ground, say the word "sit" and give them the treat.
-
Practice this several times a day in short sessions to reinforce the behavior.
-
Be patient and consistent with your training, and remember to reward your puppy each time they successfully sit on command.
