SKID BOOT was a very talented dog though….you are a very lucky man to have the chance to own a dog that smart! GREAT STORY FOR THE GRANDCHILDREN LATER!
What a wonderful job you did David. We will remember Skidboat and he will live forever in our hearts. I love him!
That is a very nice story….in the samw while sad two….not much people have this luck in the world…is just amazing
I am from California, and I have met people from Texas. They were exceptionally nice.
Amazing dog dog amazing owner I have a blind dog they adapt
Skidboot is a special dog. I don’t know whether he’s alive or in Heaven but I do know that that dog was a gift from God to his owner. The puppies could be trained and be like Skidboot but they will never replace the real thing.
Nice story. I have an older border collie that is so smart like that but starting to have problems of his own. It’s sad. They’re such great dogs!
Wow, what amazing friends, God brought them together, what a blessing, I’m sad that he is not here anymoe…
A beautiful story is all I can say. I cried as I watched it. I have had some wonderful dogs along the way that each had a bit of Skidboot in them. What a wonderful dog he has been to his master. He will indeed be a living legend. Those children will always remember him. God blessed Mr. Hartwig and everyone with a wonderful friend in Skidboot. The biggest lesson learned from this story: NEVER GIVE UP ON WHAT MAY BE CONSIDERED A TROUBLESOME DOG!!!
OMG i cried when i heard that Skidboot is going blind too.. It was so sad.. How do you all know that he passed away? So sad
OMG! i cried when i heard that Skidboot was going blind! I hope he’s doing ok. Good luck to you!
Twice? If it was once I’d understand, but twice just shows ignorance.
GOSH what the heck is wrong with u just a spelling error!
Jeezus Trainlova! Pay some respect to the dog and spell beautiful right!
i love that dog too bad he isnt with us Rest In Peace doggy let you be in paradise
Australian Cattle Dogs are amazing and incredibly smart. I have 2 of my own. Skidboot lived a wonderful life, I wanted to cry when I heard he was going blind. It’s sad that he passed away.
I wish I could of met Skidboot, too bad he passed away…
R.I.P. Skidboot…
