Learn how to teach your dog to do a "SIT STAY".  This is Meeko, an Akita

Step 1:  Dog is sitting at left side.

Step 2: Gather up the leash and hold in your left hand.

Step 3:  Keeping a tight hold of dog with left hand, use the right hand, palm facing dog and say "STAY"

Step 4:  Keeping your left foot in place, step off with your right foot and step directly in front of your dog. Repeat the word "STAY" Stand directly in front of your dog for a silent count of 5, then return to the dog's right side. If you dog gets up at any point, place them back into the sit position and try again.  This takes time, so don't rush it.

Step 5: When you can stand in front of your dog for a silent count to 30 and your dog does not get up. Next time, repeat the word "STAY" and take one step backwards. Hold this position for a silent count to 5 then return to your dog. Repeat this step until you reach a count of 30 and then take another step backwards. Remember to repeat the command "STAY"

Step 6: When you return to your dog, REMEMBER TO GIVE LOTS OF PRAISE AND LOVE FOR A JOB WELL DONE.
