This amazing dog brought a lot of joy to a lot of people.

Skidboot the Dog

Sadly, he passed away earlier this year.

It is said, that when God put the schism between man and animals, dog jumped it to be closer to man. Skidboot surely was leading the pack. Thanks Joe.

No question... Skidboot was a remarkable animal! However, I can't help but be impressed even more by David Hartwig. It is said that a dog is a mans best friend but surely David Hartwig returned the favor.

Great story.
Dog spelled backwards, is still man's best friend.

My dog is sitting here at my feet, probably wondering why I'm petting her even more than usual with the hand that's not wiping a tear away from my eyes.

Thanks.

Wow. I remember Skidboot from when he won Pet Star one year. Just last week, we were searching for a video of him performing so that my sister could see how he would walk backwards. My dog is part red heeler, & she throws it in reverse all the time. We ran across the story Joe posted, and knew he was getting old, but didn't realize he had since died. :-( What an amazing bond between man & beast.

Here is the Pet Star clip.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYczb_I7QKk
