What is the best way to teach a dog to sit?
The best way to teach a dog to sit is to start with treats. Reward them when they sit and give them verbal praise. Gradually, reduce the amount of treats as you increase the number of repetitions until your dog can reliably stay in the sitting position for at least 5 seconds without being rewarded. You may also want to practice other commands such as 'come', 'down' or'stay' while teaching the sit command.
