Teaching Your Dog To Sit

 


Does your canine companion know basic obedience commands? The most important ones for your pup to learn are Sit, Stay, Come, Heel, and Lay Down. Most people find it easiest to start with the command to Sit, because it's the easiest for your canine companion to learn.

Start by holding a treat over your canine pal's head. He'll naturally look up. If you start moving it towards his tail, he'll sit down to keep his eyes on the prize. When he does, say 'Sit' and give him his prize. It's fine to say the command after he sits. Keep doing this, and he'll eventually associate the word with the desired action. In time, you can start limiting the treats. You don't want to completely stop with them, just don't offer them every time.

Visit your animal hospital Marietta, GA regularly for wellness care. This is also a great source for advice. Make an appointment today!
