When training young pointing dogs, I always recommend teaching “whoa” before “sit.” 🐶 If you teach “sit” first, your dog might sit down when confused or pressured in the field, especially when establishing point. Teaching “whoa” first helps them stand tall and stay steady, making for a smoother transition during hunts. But if you do teach “sit” at home, be sure to balance it by practicing “whoa” just as much!
