Akita dog

　　To train an Akita dog to complete the sit and stay action, the owner must first become friends with the dog. Gain the Akita's trust and respect, let the dog see you as the master, and have absolute obedience to you. Then start the specific training content.

　　1. At the beginning of training, you can put the training leash and collar on the Akita dog, and prepare the dog’s favorite food. When the owner pulls the leash and gives the "sit" command, if it is the dog’s first time training, the owner needs to gently press its hind legs with the hand to help the dog assume the correct sitting posture. When the dog completes a sitting action, the owner can give an appropriate amount of treats as a reward.

　　2. When the dog tries to stand up after sitting, the owner should press it back to the original position, and repeat the "sit" command until it sits again. After the dog maintains the sitting posture for a few seconds, the owner can walk in front of the dog and loudly say "Good" to encourage and praise the dog for doing very well. At the same time, give a treat reward or gently stroke it to help the dog participate smoothly in the next training session.

　　3. If the sitting dog keeps moving left and right, the owner should continuously repeat the tone of "stay" to let the dog continue to sit steadily. After sitting steadily for a few minutes, the owner can issue the "stand up" command, so the dog can stand up. Training should be done at fixed time periods daily, each session lasting 15-20 minutes, 3-4 times a day. After a period of repetitive training, the dog will master the "sit" command.

　　4. Akita dogs are excited and active, making behavior control difficult during training. Therefore, the training must follow a step-by-step principle, preferably in a quiet environment, combining work and rest, and preparing enough treats when necessary to entice the dog to participate in training. During the training process, the owner should not spoil or relax the training of the dog; the training must be carried out with strict and consistent requirements (Source: PetsZone)
