sheeba's sponsors

Sheeba is always looking for new sponsors, because she's too paw to buy a new deck.

She's currently riding am for schmackos, but eukanuba are trying to poach her.

If you're not convinced of Sheeba's undying love for concrete, check out Tyson the Skateboarding Bulldog
Sheeb and I haven't been shredding it up so much recently, but every time she hears those wheels when we're out, her ears prick up, her tail wags, and she pants, "We're going for a roll!" We are going – real soon (just as soon as the sun comes out)

the rules of sk8 dogging

Always take a bucket of water with you. If you're shaggy like Sheeba or you're doing lots of slobber slides, it can get pretty hot and you need to replace those fluids. A dirty puddle doesn't count, although skating next to a river can be fun (eg Nedlands).

If pup doesn't want to get on the board today, wait until tomorrow. Even Sheeba thought it was pretty scary the first time.

Teach pup to push switch, so she doesn't wear out the pads of her paws on only one side.

Add a tennis ball to the mix to enhance the experience (eg Subi Bowl).

A skate dog likes nothing better than to land a trick, sit down, and lick her bum in celebration.

Don't let pup grab the bumper of your car and skitch. Dogs and cars don't mix. Kori taught me that :'(
