Skateboard
Dog, Tyson of Huntington Beach, is an incredible
Bulldog that delights all who see him scooting and gliding
along sidewalks near the beach. He's been on
television and in movies, but he's best known and loved by
those who see him skating most every day at Southern
California beaches. Your best chance of seeing him live is in
downtown Huntington Beach along Main Street.
We went to Tyson's
website and read about his life. He was born on October 4,
2001 in Los Alamitos, California. From the beginning, Tyson
was distinctive among his peers, being the largest of 8
puppies. First raised as a pup by a snowboarder, Tyson was
relocated to the beach and went crazy every time he saw
skateboarders on an a cement
bike and skate path at the beach. Barking and pulling with all his
strength, his owners thought that he hated skateboards.
Amazingly, Tyson only
wanted to get on the board and ride. He began riding at one
year and became quite skilled. Tyson wants to ride every day
and is unhappy when he misses a day, his owners say.
Tyson is
amazingly skilled. He's been featured nationally on Martha
Stewart and in the movies, Lords of Dogtown
and Undiscovered. Tyson has also appeared internationally
in productions in Japan and other countries. Visit
Tyson’s website, Skateboardingbulldog.com, to find out more
about this marvel that his owners describe as a skater who
happens to be a dog.
