when you walk him on leash, or when at sit-stay correct him the moment he starts to look at the ground. Reward the moment he looks to you. Dont try to move to fast.

You need to work on only rewarding when the dog is in correct position, which means he is sitting straight and looking up crisply.
A simple light pull on a flat collar is pretty easy to get the dog to keep attention. You don't have to prong the hell outta him to get his head to move a few inches.
Work more on keeping his focus and desire high for your reward.
If this is the 8 month old pup, you are leaving him in the sit too long. They will tend to get bored at about the same length of time, so go to a new motion before the dog the has the chance to move.
If you can't be a Good Example,then You'll just have to Serve as a Horrible Warning. Catherine Aird.
I did not put him long in the sit stay position. I just only build time by staying beside him with out any distractions. I am very concern about my treat I just make the rabbit jumps into his mouth but not falling off to the ground. yet he still wants to snip the ground I have yet to teach him tracking.
Try moving a short distance away and keep moving around him. Don't go behind, just make an arc in front. You need to keep his interest, or he is going to find something else to do.
