Oh Kids! I had the pleasure of spending a few days in Pasadena, CA over New Years with the Natural Balance Pet Foods crew and their stable of athletic bulldogs including the “Worlds Fastest Skateboarding Bulldog,” Tillman. Tillman and team entered into the Rose Parade this year with the, now, Guiness Book of Worlds Records “World’s Longest Float” measuring in at 113 feet 8 inches long. Certainly an accomplishment in itself, Joey Herrick, President of Natural Balance didn’t stop there. He included on the float 5 snowboarding bulldogs!! That’s right, Tillman snowboards too.
It was Tillman, his little sister Rose, their new bulldog buddy from Venice, Lyle and two new “Team Tillman” members, Tank and Niko. All able to glide down the float with the greatest of poise and athleticism. No easy feat, as I witnessed many a reporter try and fail to maneuver the nearly 70 “snow” ramp. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words…here’s a few thousand words of their training and final result. Go Team Tillman! Can’t wait to see what they’ve got up their sleeve for 2010!
Happy New Year!
hehe. This is so ironic. basically explains all.
Your dogs are awesome! I have been wanting a bulldog for awhile now, but am patiently waiting until 1) I can afford to spend that much money on a bulldog and 2) I have the time to spend with it!
I remember seeing the team of dogs that rode down the slide in the parade as well! Awesome!
