“Sit” is one of the easiest and most effective commands a dog can learn. It is often one of the first commands taught, as it helps with discipline, patience, and obedience. Dogs understand this word when paired with hand signals and treats, making it a useful tool for training and control.
Teaching “sit” also sets the foundation for more advanced commands. Practicing it regularly in different environments helps reinforce the behavior, ensuring your dog listens even with distractions.
