I SURE WOULD LIKE TO MEET THIS ,MAN AN KNOW HOW HE MAKES THAT DOG MIND/ HE IS GREAT.
I saw an earlier video about Skidboot, about how he started training just an ordinary farm dog, but obviously, he isn’t just an ordinary dog. Fascinating.
Fantastic !!! Skidboot and his owner are very close. What this man and Skidboot have created is an atr of love and devoition.
THIS DOG WON THE COMPETITION AND LIVED IN QUINLAN TEXAS,,,,HE IS NOW PASSED BUT HIS OWNER IS TRAINING ONE OF HIS OFFSPRINGS IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN…..HE IS A GREAT PERSON WITH ANIMALS….
Skidboot has a tremdous vocabularyand certainly want to please his master. Its wonderful to see humans and animals coexisting that way
I would like to give good Credit. petiently how to teach and
Trained,DOG and Bird, I really love them.
The article is usefull for me. I’ll be coming back to your blog.
The article is ver good. Write please more
I really like your post. Does it copyright protected?
OMG this is the best great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello. I think the article is really interesting. I am even interested in reading more. How soon will you update your blog?
This makes me believe again in the goodness of man and dog.
I raise dogs, I love dogs and people who love them too. Great to be able to share his accomplishments - both of them.
This dog’s training is phenomenal! I wish I could get our dogs to do that! They are Border Collies and really smart, but I guess they’re smarter than me because I haven’t been THAT successful. Does this man have a book out on HOW to teach your dogs to do that?? Sure would be helpful.
That is so so so cool how old is your dog and what age he or she did this
I think I will try to recommend this post to my friends and family, cuz it’s really helpful.

Thanks for your concern about “sweetie’s” well-being but we had to have her put to sleep about three months ago because of abdominal cancer. The new proprietor of this old house is named “Wendy” who we adopted from Canine Adoption and Rescue League (C-A-R-L’S) of Santa Paula, CA. According to the biography of Wendy (apparently a Pit-Boxer mix)published on the computer network, she had been abandoned in nearby Balcom Canyon where she tried to exist on lizards and rodents but had become emaciated partly due to the more excellent predators (coyotes) she was competing with for subsistence. CARL’s captured Wendy after some effort and nursed her back to excellent health whereupon she was offered for adoption. After they interviewed and inspected us for the privelege, we won the competition and now enjoy her companionship. Will contact you later regarding your vitamin laced product. It sounds like an excellent product.

We lost our beloved TimberStar in late January. Life will never be the same without her. Having a 99.9% Timberwolf was interesting to say the least, and trying to train her was something else! She was EXTREMELY food motivated, which helped. When she would get loose, she would wind up getting a ride home in a police cruiser! All they had to do was open the door and she would hop in. My beloved pet and loyal companion…………

I have a dog named Tasha too… Anyway, my grandparents’ dog, Tish, died because she got really sick when they went to Mexico, when they got back, she wasn’t acting normal, she was about 16 years old, when i heard she had been put down, it felt like I couldn’t breath,I do see her sometimes though….

Losing an animal, be it a dog, cat, bird, is devistating. My husband passed away in 1999 at the age of 46, We had rescued a 6 week old puppy from the aspca in 1992. She was 1/3 shepard, 1/2 collie. Sandy was 7 years old when Steve died. I never knew how depressed an animal could get over the loss of their master. For 2 weeks she didnt leave his bed. He was disabled so he slept in a special bed. 7 years later to the date of my husbands death on sept 18th 2006, (watch the number7s in this letter) at 7 minutes after midnight my sandy passed away. After crying 24/7 for a solid month I knew I had to find a new puppy because my heart hadn’t smiled since I lost her. well believe it or not I saw an ad in the paper for a 7 week old fawn pug purebred. I always wanted one so I decided to buy her he was born on Sept 11, not a good day for America to start with, BUT she was born 7 days before sandy died. I knew it was meant to be. I have never been more right. He made my heart smile when he licked my face all I smelt was puppy breath. I loved it. My heart finally smiled again. I just wanted to end this with, today would have been my husbands 57th birthday. HE WAS BORN ON 7/7 !! Can u believe this? I now believe in fate. Happy Birthday Stephen. I will always love you………….your wife Katherine @==}==

I am very sorry for the loss of your Doberman, Miss Molly. It sounds like you were very close. One thing I’ve found about Dobermans is that they tend to pick their “human” and bond to the point where they never leave your side. I hope your pain eases soon, Debra.
We were fortunate enough to adopt the sister of our Dobie that passed. She was in a bad situation where she was kept in a crate most of the day and was drinking water from a hamster water bottle! I’m happy to say she’s in great shape now and is as sweet as her sister! She’s also my constant shadow, as her sister was.
God bless you too. All the best.

Dear Debra,
So often well meaning people say ” I know how you feel”.
So often, they have not shared the experience so they do not. They can not. In this case, I have and do. On November 5th 2007 at 6:30pm, I lost my beautiful Dobie girl 20 days short of her fourteenth birthday. Belka ( which means squirrel in Russian) was my best friend and companion through a serious illness. She was a playmate, a protector, and peacemaker. Everyone who met her walked away with a true understanding of what really matters in life. They also walked away understanding the Doberman breed and no longer viewed her kind with fear. One snort, one wiggle and it was ” all out paws down”. When she was diagnosed with Lymphoma in July, We travelled for her chemo and kept each others spirits up. I truly believed she would recover…..
For six months I could not even look at her picture. I can not say how sorry I am for your loss of Miss Molly. I can say losing Belka changed me and for the first time my heart was truly broken. What keeps me going is my husband who loved her too my two other Dobies( Duke a red boy and Shadow another black girl) and the belief that our beloveds are waiting for us to usher us into heaven. Stay Strong but let the tears come ( as mine are now). You are not alone. GOD BLESS AND HELP YOU AS WELL
Meg

Yep, unfortunately the longevity of our pets is one of the downfalls in our relationships. With each I lose I try to be grateful for the time I had and stay open for the next opportunity. Too bad not everyone attachs the personal sentiment to thier animals. My sad emotions lay with the countless animals that are abused. I am sorry you are experiencing this loss and hope your next compnion is just as wonderful….

Zeus n Thor are now 3 years old and they very healthy shih Tzus, both were fixed in Feb 2009, and they have not put on any weight.

I have two Leonbergers that weigh about 125 lbs. each. I supplement their dry food with Dr. Michael Fox’s homemade dog food recipe. My dogs love it. The supplement inludes bone meal, wheat germ, flaxseed oil, garlic, alfafa, and other healthy nutrients. They are 3 years old and in the best of health. They are my gentle giants. There is a website about Leonbergers at http://www.LeonbergerClubofAmerica.com. Check it out. Lots of pictures of these beautiful dogs.

I truly understand all of the losses. We have had the same feelings of loss with the death of our beloved golden retriever. It is such a horrible thing to lose your beloved pet. They are really such a part of our families. We now have another little darling golden who we love with all our hearts. Please get another dog. They need you and you will love again. Even though your hearts are breaking as mine was (never thought I would ever love another darling) you will! I promise. They all have something that makes them special. Love to all and keep cherishing your beloved dogs.

I very sad to see our dogs die, they are another member of our family. It is indeed sad , and it is also very hard when you loose your animal.
There is no way to replace our beloved dogs, they are unique the same way each of us is unique in this universe. Only time will help to cure these wounds.
