Step 1 - While your dog is on the floor, kneel beside him and hold a treat or toy slightly above his head so he'll have to look up a bit to see it. Don't drop it or give it to him even if he tries to grab or eat it.
Step 2 - Say the command:SIT!
Step 3- Keep the treat just above his eye when dogs look up, their bodies become drawn upwards and their butts go down, hitting the floor (in sitting position). Wait for this to happen, moving the treat higher if you need to. Don't force his butt down but tapping it gently may help.
Step 4 - As soon as his butt touches the floor, praise him amd give the reward.
Step 5- Keep practicing then try telling him to sit without a treat.
