Sit and Down Stay - Tips for the first training session with your puppy
This video goes over tips for initially getting the puppy into the positions. Also most dog training tutorials don’t really go into detail as to how to teach the puppy to follow the treat when getting into the position but then ignore the treat when it is moved away from them and they are expected to stay. This video shows what you can do in the first training sessions to teach the concept of moving into the positions and staying there as the treat is then moved away.

This is not a full tutorial on teaching a reliable stay, after following these initial steps, you will then need to add distance, distractions and duration to your training.

Here are full tutorials on teaching stay:
