Stop him from moving forward by placing one hand under his chin and with the other hand hold the treat above his nose and continue to repeat clearly and deliberately, “Sit.” Don't make him sit too long at any time, but repeat the lesson frequently and reward him often with abundant praise and treats. Don't forget this is important for the dog.
