When you see it give a unique voice command and hand gesture pair.Repetition, consistency (reward only for the proper action), and enthusiasm will quickly lead to learning the 'sit'. Associate a unique hand signal and tone with the command.As a last resort, for the stubborn or slow learner, give the command and at the same time push gently on the back near the tail as you lift his chin. That way a dog associates the behavior with the command. Some will get it fast, some will take ten or more or won't get it without further prompting. So, here's how NOT to train your dog:- Forget that your dog has a nature unlike yours. Many dogs take two years to learn anything beyond the easiest basics to the point that it consistently sticks. At first, the dog will have no idea why you're so happy.As a result, it can be frustrating to repeat the same command over and over, only to have the dog apparently ignore you. Watch and catch them in the middle of sitting and say 'sit' and gesture. Praise the dog lavishly. But they don't reason out or get context the way humans do.Difficulty training 'sit' varies by breed, individual and training style.Dog Training - Down Command - Dogs have a natural inclination to adhere to a hierarchy with an alpha (leader) at the top.After several repetitions try just using a 'waving down' hand movement, palm toward the floor or ground. We can wsh it were so but it's not and never will be! Though the average grown dog has a mental development someplace approximately on the level of a human two year old, there are more deviations than there are similarities. Take special care with young hips - don't force a completely uncooperative dog this way. It seems it should be obvious - they've done the action with success many times before - but today they are just 'being obstinate'.- Get impatient and frustrated when
