I tried training my very cute little 9 week old puppy for the first time just then. I used the method in Victoria Stilwell’s “it’s Me or the Dog”, I held a little treat and let her sniff it but not have it. She quickly gets bored of trying to get it and sits down, at that precise moment she gets the treat. This gets repeated a few times and then you add “sit” with a hand signal.

Anyway, she picked it up real quick! It helps that she is a complete guts and will do anything for food.

Here’s a pic of her just after she’d just learnt it!
