Day Job: Giving people the best trained dog in the neighborhood. | Side Gig: Documenting the process to educate owners & trainers all around the world.
Dog 001 Part 1/3
This is exactly why we film the drop-off.
Today you’re seeing Oreo exactly as he came in — pulling, jumping, overstimulated, and with very little obedience / control around his owner.
Good news - that’s why he’s with me
No polished training clips. No before-and-after yet. This is the starting point.
He’ll be with me for the next 4 weeks, and I’m going to document the process along the way so you can see what actually changes — not just the finished product.
This is Part 1 of 3
Part 2 will be a midpoint progress update, and Part 3 will be the full before-and-after transformation at go-home.
Follow along. This should be a fun one. 👀
@RIGGEDFORVEGAS Routine fly ball? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 19mph winds blowing straight out and look how far he tracked the ball + on the wall. Your page is good but calling this routine is wilddddd, literally nothing routine about that play.
For young puppies (ideally 8-15 weeks old) this is where I start.
I first teach the puppy come. Then I teach sit.
1) I say dog’s name, come.
• Praise the pup entire way to you. If you need to repeat come a few times that’s okay.
• Once pup gets to you I praise the dog verbally and or pet the pup + give him a little treat.
• Bonus Tip: start inside without a ton of distractions around
2) Teaching Sit
• Do step 1 above
• Once pup comes to you, I take a treat. Put it at you pup’s nose level say sit and lift your hand up 1-2 inches while you say sit.
• Once pup sits praise pup + give treat
• Bonus Tip: Placing the treat at the pup’s nose and lifting 1-2 inches straight up towards the sky will help eliminate the puppy jumping at your hand trying to get the treat.
Teaching Puppy How To Swim:
When I first teach a puppy to swim I’ll go In the water with the first few times.
Il keep a leash on, call the puppy and praise the pup. I’ve trained hundreds of dogs to swim just how you see in this video
@Teslaconomics@Teslaconomics does it transfer from vehicle to vehicle though? I have heard mixed things on this. If you trade in you Tesla for a new one does it transfer?
@Teslaconomics I just bought one 1 month ago , love it, but if you buy FSD and say I trade in car 1 an get car 2 will it transfer? Do you know how that works? Thanks

Your dog sucks on leash because you don’t tell it to do anything.
You just tell it what not to do.
You pull, resist, choke, stand over or move across the street.
Put simply, you act weird.
Therefore, your dog acts weird.
The Fix: Teach your dog Heel.
Heel means - walk nicely at your side.
Finished product = you walk by people or dogs and your dog walks nicely.
No more lunging. No more pulling.
Teach your dog. Praise your dog when it does well & enjoy future walks.
This is simple but people make it complicated.
