He is doing this more than likely because it gets additional attention from you. Put the ball in your court! You have ALL the good stuff and he needs to know this. When he understands to listen to YOU all the times he gets rewards, (won't always have to be a treat).
Ditto to this. Use some tasty treats to your advantage, once he gets the message you can gradually fade out the treats.
