The Internets Coolest Dogs
I’m a dog person.
I’ve grown up with dogs and love them. I have a particularly special place in my heart for Golden Retrievers because a special Golden named Chelsea use to break my falls at the age of 3. Now @mollstar‘s dog, Moose, takes Chelsea’s place. I don’t dive bomb him but I definitely appreciate his attention.
Over the past few weeks I’ve seen a number of internet meme‘s (viral stories) about cool dogs, so I decided to write a quick post on the cool dogs that are making a name for themselves on the internet. This post is definitely different than the traditional post here but sometimes I think that’s not such a bad thing. After you read this post & watch these videos, go give your pup a hug, or go find a dog to add to your family, you won’t regret it.
Skidboot – The best trained dog ever:
David Hartwig, Skidboot’s owner clearly has a special love for this pooch and it’s obvious that this love has lead to their success.
Skidboot listens to David better than most 10 year old children listen to their parents. With this level of training Skidboot has become a star. He was on Oprah, The Tonight Show, and others.
This video shows that Skidboot is going blind and I read that sadly, Skidboot passed away several months after this video. But his memory lives on, thanks to the web.
Faith – The walking dog:

I was going to do a long write up about how special faith is, but instead I’m just going to say this…
FAITH WALKS LIKE A HUMAN, WTF!?
This has got to me one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen in my life. I love that Faith’s owner has taken an incredibly talented dog and inspired so many to do things that they never thought they could achieve. With hard work, a little training, and lot’s of Faith, anything can be accomplished. What a great message.
I hope you all are having a wonderful day!
