How to Train a Dog to "Sit" (K9-1.com)

*When i showed this to my dog...* *He's now teaching me how to sit*

Worked like a charm, first training session took 15 minutes and my puppy learned to sit, stay and come ❤️

I got a pitbull, he tells me when to sit :(

Wow she makes this look easier than it really is... my dog keeps jumping

Why am I watching this, I dont even have a dog

wow. he's smarter than my sister, she's 17

My puppy walked away.

I have been using thisas a handy reference book kzhead.infoUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq . I read through the book and enjoyed the little glimpses of examples. I love that this author believes in rescue dogs. The tips and training has been invaluable and gave me moments of.... "how simple why didn't i think of it" so it's been a great tool. Thank you!

Doesn't work on goldfish.

Just got my GSD (8 weeks old) 2 days ago and these videos are so awesome and are helping me easily teach him obedience. Thank you.

8 years later and it still works! took both of my dogs 30 minutes to learn sit, stay, and come! 😃

Training can really take it out of you, but the end results are worth it. Honestly, trying to train a mischievous dog is very difficult, but also rewarding once you get to establish a good rapport. We once had a difficult dog but with perseverance (a couple of months and tons of treats) we managed to finally train our dog and it's very, very rewarding. Just be consistent and keep training!

*SUGGESTION:* Consider simply saying "sit" without preceding it with their name. In other word, do not say their name in conjunction to the command. Also try not to speak at all when rewarding a dog with a treat because just as you pointed out, a dog should not always require the treat or praise with the exception of periodic/annual reinforcement. *_GREAT VIDEOS!_*

He's so beautiful. I love the way you work with him

I tried this he looked at me took a piss and went along with his day😂😂

I love your very simple and realistic approach to training . Our puppy will be here at the end of next week and I will be indeed watching these videos to help train our new puppy. Thank You

I am so happy that I came across your videos. I've had my new puppy for two weeks (he's a German Shepherd/Siberian husky) & I'm having a hard time with him biting & barking. I know he's a baby though so I'm being patient. Thank you for the amazing vids. I'm excited to study them 😊

This is probably 1 of the best dog training videos I've seen. Easy and crystal clear. Can't wait to start train my Gsd puppy 😍.

Did you know that we offer full mentorships and certification courses for professional dog trainers and students? dogtraining.world

I went back here after trying this method to my 8 weeks old doberman and it worked! Thank you so much!!! To those who are struggling do not give up and be patient with your dog ❤

Great stuff… My wife and I have raised GSD dogs for over 30 years. Thanks for the info.

This was so helpful, I was able to teach my 2 months old puppy everything you did very easily and quickly, thanks a lot.

I really love the way she says “dog” it’s really cool. Very helpful as well ! Thank you!

So far the best dog training video, I have ever seen show step by step process. Thank you,

Thank you so much! I definitely need this! My German Shepard just had 8 puppies a couple days ago, so now I will be prepared to train them when the time comes.

OMG, thank you for your help. These videos are truly stunning. you're helping everybody to be their own dogs trainers. bless you.

Successfully trained my pup to sit. It's so satisfying. Can't wait for more training sessions.

I'm training my eight week old pit pup, she's doing good, just wanted to thank you for the videos!

Being a police dog trainer for 5 years , I perceived I known alot there was to know about teaching puppies , but , I guess I was mistaken . There seems to be numerous a plenty different ways that teachers are using these days and various edifying webpages like yours out there . Thank You , for helping me advance my comprehension on Dog Training . I certainly will share your site with my co-workers !

Really good training series. Well explained, well demonstrated. Thank you.

Thank you soooo much! I've been searching the Internet for my chihuahua to do this sit trick! And it worked! Thank you! I'm subscribing!

Oh my goodness this helped a lot. I taught my Rottweiler how to sit the first day I tried. Thanks!

Very simple and practical. Thanks so much for posting! :)

I have to say I know this is a six-year-old post I still wanted to comment on your technique. We both pretty much do our training the same way. I have never been a fan of the clicker movement or a treat for every time they do something right. I've been doing Shepherd rescue for over 20 years and in that time I have been given the pleasure to get free training from a lot of different organizations. I have trained with three different law enforcement agencies and the department of correction. Also dozens of public trainers who wanted an endorsement and free advertising on our webpage. I'm very big on hand commands. Whenever I take in a foster I will test them to see where they're at. I used to have a great helper. She was my first German Shepherd that I rescued as a puppy. And the reason she was turned over is that the original owner was a teenage girl and could not or want to teach her how to behave. Whenever I would have a foster who might have been afraid my baby girl who was the alpha after me what pick up my fosters signs of being afraid. She would jump right in there and walk right beside them off leash and normally after a week they would have their confidence. Whenever I see somebody that only treat trains their babies I always ask them what will you do if you run out of treats? Most of them have the same answer that they won't run out. I guess they have a magic bag that never runs empty. I just prefer getting them to hand commands faster. Ever after kids were younger all of us would take walks with all of our babies sometimes it could be as many as six to eight. My boys learned early how to handle German shepherds that weigh them at that time. And when one would stop and set all of them would. We even have a nickname in our neighborhood. They call us the German Shepherd house the safest house in the neighborhood. I enjoyed your video and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good trainer online.

Your channel is really useful. Thanks so much for posting all this precious information!!

Thank you!! This worked with our new dog!! It made a difference too to be standing and ask and not kneeling at his level (he would just back up). I'll definitely be watching the rest of the videos to keep working with him.

I had a dog for 16 years and he did not even sit. I got him when I was 10, so I did not know how to teach him anything. Now I want to have another dog, but this time, I make sure to teach him at least the basic :) I will definitely use your videos :) Thanks!

3:50 Dog thinks *SHE PLAYED ME LIKE THE DAMN FIDDLE!!!*

absolutely amazing video! very interesting and helpful, hopefully ill be able to teach my future gsd using these skills :)

My expectations have been fulfilled your discipline actually does work thanks for the input

Well done! Very helpful and clear. Thanks

just tried this with my 9 week old german shepherd puppy and only had to do the over his head part twice then he was sitting as soon as i said it! and I've only had him for 5 days! definitely going to carry on training him with the help of your videos! :)

Your training videos are excellent! I'll be working with dogs in the near future, so your videos will be of great help.

Your teaching is very clear, thank you and appreciate from Vietnam !

How can i teach my dog to dab?

now I have a bigger problem my dog don't even want the treat😂😂😂😂😂😂

As a child following your step This so helpful and my hyper dog Knows how to sit

Ohhh that's great. I tried it with my dog. He learned it so fast. Thank u so much

what kind of treats do you use? how many sessions a day and what time per session?

Pavlov's classical conditioning at it's best, good job.

ive used your video to help my german sheppard thank you, keep the videos coming

thanksfor your time and good explanation. works wellwithmy dogs.

She is really good

I taught my German Shepherd/Great Pyrenese puppy to sit using tamales,also to shake hands just by asking him to give me his paw.

he is so sweet and smart! love this GSD puppy

Simplicity is the art of perfection.

really helpful

“Show them reward to make them listen” sounds like business corporate to me!!

Great video!! I watched it at the end of last year when I had just adopted a puppy that belonged to my father, he was 9 months old and messed up a lot, after I started to apply some things from his video it improved a lot !!. I got interested and even bought a cheap course on the internet that teaches a little more about how to train different types of dogs. Now we have spent quality time with him as a family, I recommend it highly.

Great video. When I train pups I tend to say the command at the end of the praise. "Good sit"

wow thanks my pup is still learning but is working thanks .

thanks this rlly helps i just got my puppy yesterday and i tought him how to sit in less then 10 minutes

that's one handsome boy, and thanks for the video, im getting a dog in two weeks as a christmas gift, and i can't wait to teach her tricks

Thank you so much for your very informative video, it helps for us to make our puppies of having a basic training. Good job Madam!

Loved this video... and I don't even own a dog!

Luring doesn't work for my dog. If he can't get the treat from you immediately, he gives up.

Thank you for getting straight to the point

Love the accent! Reminds me of when I lived in NH. Great video and easy to follow. I'm 18 and thinking of getting a German shepherd for the farm. Also as a hunting, swimming buddy

Lmfao in the beginning when she said we are gonna teach u the command, my dog just sat down and didn't move🤣🤣

I’m getting a dog in 20 days! Yay

Very simple and helpful. Thank you.

Hi! Great videos, very instructive and clearly demonstrated! Do you have a video about barking?

That dog had to have been pre-trained before the video.😂 my dog is energetic, & she lived in a barn for the first 4 months of her life where she got to do whatever she wanted.

When I use the treat he rolls over and when I say sit he lays down

now that's the best tips i've got so far

thank you for this. i plan on getting a bichon frise and a maltese sometime near the end of the year! :D

I fed my dog like 20 treats and he doesn’t know anything-

Never thought of that . Brilliant thanks

My puppy is 9weeks and I started training her yesterday she do really well:D

At what age can I start with the training ?? My puppy is jack russell terrier and he is 7 weeks old

Thanks! We are working on training our German shephard puppy to Sit, stay , shake, halt, and to go to a certain spot when we say a specific word. Like if we say ''Red!'' he will go by the kitchen table. Like that. Thanks again :P
