Treats are a great way to teach your dog obedience; you can give him a treat when he does something you want him to do, or If he doesn't obey then he doesn't get the treat. Shouting at your dog is not a good idea as it will frighten him and you must avoid that at all costs, you need to form a happy relationship with him. Dogs are man's best friend, depending upon how you treat them.

Any time you are doing your basic dog training try and carry out the lessons away from any distractions like sticks or bones that he may want to play with. Walk with him to a quiet beach or vacant area that maybe nearby, where there is plenty of free space. Tell your dog firmly that you want him to sit, then take your hand and place it on his back and gently guide his bottom down, when it is down say sit and show him that you are pleased with him and give him a treat.

By regularly repeating this exercise, your dog will respond to the sit command, because he realizes that by doing what he is told he will be compensated and also because he can sense that you are pleased with him. Eventually your dog will heed you as a matter of course, and you can dispense with the treats.
