I got her when she was older so she already knew how to sit but I know w/ other dogs in addition to the treat over the nose trick I've just tried catching them sitting and telling them good sit. They do eventually catch on. Good luck!

Bella totally does the What's in it for me look too. But if there is food in the room or she even remotely thinks I have a treat she is sitting her pretty little butt down fast, to the point that I don't even have to ask. Hmmmm who is trained here??!! LOL

She does well with the take it/leave it command too. But she does so well that when I say leave it she heads over to my other hand for the treat she get's to take. I swear they are the smartest dogs ever
