Skidboot the dog

If you have never seen this dog, this is worth a watch. Even if you have seen him like me, its still worth the watch as I have never seen this video. What an amazing dog, the relationship between him and his owner is just awesome! Enjoy. :D

What a delightful way to start my day! People like that are one big reason why I love Texas.

For new viewers, it may be a bit long, but worth every second out of your day. Thanks for the post O Town. :D

I didn't want to watch this until I came home form work. What a beautiful story, beautiful dog and a beautiful, humble, righteous man. God Bless them both!

This is the first time I've heard of Skidboot.

The dog was definately blessed to have found his "owner" or "Dad". I'm always a sucker for an animal story, but this gentleman is just so NICE - I'm so happy for him that he found the love and friendship of Skidboot. I'm glad that he has been able to afford new things that he may not have been able to otherwise, due to their success. However, it's SO REFRESHING to know that all of that does not matter to him, just his relationship with Skidboot. WOW!!
