press down on his but and make him sit and keep saying sit until he sits down and then when he does give him a treat and praise him. do it like 3-4 times a day and he will pick up in a few days.
Husky's are more like people than dogs, they have an incredible mind and they are very difficult to train on the basis if they don't want to learn it.you will find it almost impossible to teach them. What you need to do is make them want to learn, spend lots of time with him or her and ensure that you have lots of treats on hand.
Buy him a chair
Always use the same tone of voice, and one word only. Say it once, don't repeat it. And never use a questioning tone of voice.
So say 'sit'.
Not 'si-i-i-it, sit, sit down'.
When you see your pup about to sit naturally, say 'sit' then reward him.
Also, you can hold a biscuit just over his nose and move it back over his head; most dogs sit (although some jump up!). Say 'sit' just as his butt touches the floor then reward him.
Say the command, then push his bum to the ground gently, if he does it give him a treat. Soon he will get the hang of this and be able to do it himself without the extra push. (Dogs only tend to sit more if there is something in it for them eg . food).
It sounds like he may be a little immature to be learning but huskies are really smart. Just remember it might take a while for him to get the hang of things. I would try pressing down on his butt and saying sit. After you give a dog any command you should repeat his name. Make sure you say the command clearly and repeat only that one word command. Phrases do not help and most likely you'll just confuse/frustrate him. After he does it give him a treat and lots of praise and attention. Good Luck!!!
with treats ( you can use a portion of his dinner so you don't end up with a podgy puppy)
make him sit by gently tapping his back end down while saying sit, when he sits give him a treat and praise him, repeat this often and you will find they pick up on it very quickly, eventually replace the treats with just praise, so when he sits say in a excited voice good boy etc, eventually the puppy will do this just to get the praise.
lots of patience and never shout at him if he doesn't do it, it just means he doesn't get his treat/praise.
good luck, they are alot of fun at that age.
huskies need a specific training,more so than other dogs,I think.
you can get some info on the web.
he is definitely not to young, i taught my lab to sit at 8 weeks old. it isnt hard to teach a lab but a husky, they have a mind of there own. you were given correct advise already, hold the treat in one hand say "sit" and push the butt to the floor. repeat this 4 or 5 times in a row giving a treat every time. now about 20 min. later do it again. your puppy will be sitting by the end of the day!
Hey I have a seven month old Siberian Husky called Dakota I got him when he was 10 weeks and he would not do a thing he was told! to get him to sit I got a small treat, stood in front of him after showing him the treat, then told him to sit while i patted him just above the tail. he was very good at learning this (a week or two) and he now sits, jumps up to my shoulders when i point to my shoulder and say UP. He also just started giving us his paw after weeks of asking. the one thing he will not do is recall
GOOD LUCK!!
buy some very small doggy treats
get one in your hand let him sniff it but dont let him eat it then lift the treat slowly up towards his head then slowly down the sholders heshould sit and when his bum first hits the ground say "sit" and give him the treat.
i hope this works for you it work on my german shepherd pup and he is now about 15 weeks old.
jst tell your dog to sat and show him how to do it. and give him a treats wen his been good. push his bum down then give a treats than let do it by his self
