Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Use positive reinforcement techniques Almost all vets agree that positive reinforcement training is the most effective method of dog training. Positive reinforcement training essentially focuses on rewarding your pet for good behavior, rather than punishing bad behavior.

Detailed explanation-2: -Steps to Teaching Your Dog to Shake Your dog should naturally paw at your fist to get to the treat. When they do, open your hand and let them have the treat and give them plenty of praise. Repeat these steps several times until your dog “gets it.” Repeat steps 1–4, but this time, without holding a treat in your hand.

Detailed explanation-3: -To teach it, say “shake” and then put your shake hand out. Mark and feed when your pup puts their paw in your palm. At first, you may need to follow-up with the hand signal to the side, and that’s OK! Repeat until your pup immediately puts their paw in your hand as soon as you say “shake” and put out your shake hand.

Detailed explanation-4: -OPEN HAND PALM UP-Sit. This is often the first training your dog receives. The gesture is simple, have your hand palm facing the sky at your chest and move your hand in an upward motion. When you first start training be sure to pair the verbal command “sit” with the hand signal.
