Commands to Get Your Dog to sit without treats

It is important to note that before teaching any command or get into training with any dog on how to sit, one needs to provide a decent amount of exercise for the dog. This is important because you want to raise the energy level of the dog and not get it too bored to learn.

It is vital to get the dog relax after the exercise before passing information across. 

Secondly, bonding with the dog is an important step during the training of dogs. Take like 15-20 minutes to bond with your dog before passing across any kind of commend as this helps the dog to assimilate and process quickly.

With the leash on, one can teach his or her dog what they want it to do.
