  • Hold a reward over you dog’s head and make sure that he can see it.
  • Once you see that he has his eyes on it, command him firmly to ‘sit’, push your dog down gently into the sitting position.
  • If he sits down, give him the reward but if he jumps up and tries to grab the snack say ‘no’.\
  • Repeat the command ‘sit’, and push him into the sitting position.
  • Give him the snack only if he sits and praise him a lot.

Make it fun and repeat the sit command all over again. Don’t begin teaching another command right away. He is small and it might get confusing to him. Now that you’ve practiced the sit command, you can repeat it during meal times, or at times when he comes up to you for a cuddle.
Command him to sit and once he does so—pick him up and hug him. He will learn that to ‘sit’ is a desirable action with desirable outcomes and he will most likely do it again.
