Thanks! My first bulldog was famous for this very trick and it earned her the 2nd place prize on the America's Funniest People show years ago. I named my kennel for it (SittingBullies) and have a logo of a cartoon bulldog riding a rocking horse. So, it was extra fun to have yet another "Sitting Bull"!
Remarkable Cheryl..WOW just pawesome..Dont' think I've ever seen a Bull Dog do tricks at all ever!
The rocking horse was unreal..and love the skateboarding too!
My dogs Stoney and Casper threw you guys a bone..and if you look at Stoneys picture...he's waving also.
Good Luck Gabeman:):)
Pawesome! :) Thanks Gloria! I've had several bulldogs and they have all been a blast to train. I also show/compete in obedience & rally and one of my girls earned the first UDX for the breed. I currently have three bulldogs and we do "tricks for THREE" ;) They all like to get into the act! (and, of course treats are nice, as well!)
Cheryl K.

awwww how cute! i showed my family, they were in SHOCK!, so was I, I dont normaly see dogs rideing on horsies Lol!, anywayz keep it up! +_+Sharny+_N+Akira+-+_
Hi Cheryl K. Thank you for the nice Comment on Lobo's video :o) . Gabe the Bulldog is sooooo cute!! I love all the tricks he can do. Especially the one where he brings you the tissue when you sneeze and the one when he is riding on the rocking horse. That's really neat how he learned to do all that. Very awesome!! Lobo and I throw Gabe a bone too!! You guys put together a great video. Best of luck in the competition.
Thanks! My sons are great at filming/editing. I had them cut the original vid down because it had some obedience routines and just wanted to focus on the tricks--and we also had to remove the awesome music as it was copyrighted. Didn't realize they had some music on this site that we could have used--sure makes it more fun! :)
MY SON!!! The feeling is mutual...proud of YOU and your wonderful editing, etc. (sorry I didn't give you enough time to add some music!) As for you...you'll just have to decide which of your many talents will bring you the most fame! ;) And, guess I can't say, "You never write. You never call..." I am BLESSED with the whole lot of you Fraternal Foursome!
Er Cheryl My dad does that kind of stuff, which is how i got my talents at only 3yrs old to create a movie with effects transistions editing and so on.... if you check out Akiraz videos you'd probz be able to see, try *akiraz best tricks* but my best one yet are all of them:) but antyway the point im trying to make IS my dad basically owns a buisness where you challenge how good u are with editing and so on.... you win cash, money,prizes and much more, last time the show got so big it was on channel 4 4 a month!, the only reasson y im telling you this, just incase if your son wanted to join the club:0 thats the easiest way i got famous with Akiraz videos
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh, Gabe, you are sooooooooooo awesome..you should teach ME some of your tricks....thanks so much for voting for me. You got my vote and respect : ) PEPITO.
sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute and very good tricks sad my dogs cant learn them!
Type in baishy on fetch!!!!!!!!!!!!!! see mummy dog!
Hey Jennifer! Hope to see more of you on the Bully Performance Group--fun to see the vid of your girl in action! Great job! (and thanks for the vote...I'll be back to pay my respects for Moana tomorrow!)
Nice job! How do u teach your dog so many tricks? My dog Bella can only do Sit, Jump, Paw, Pretty, Down, and Low Five. Your dog does more than i can list!
He loves to learn & has been since he was a tiny lad (I am his breeder, so he's been conditioned to learn from the start!) You teach little pieces & give lots of praise & rewards. MY younger dogs also learn from watching the older ones...Gabe learned to open the fridge & get the kleenex by watching my girl, Chubbs, do those tricks. :)
cute dog and thnx for the comment on drake my doggie please vote for him just type in all his tricks and all his tricks again!!! ill do the same back to u please and love the video hes very smart :D

Ohhhh, well its just my way of spelling dog XD, i'll change it just incase people think im mad XD, Akira finnaly popped all the balloons from my 15th birthday, and is now probably tryna finish off my mc donalds so i better check on her:),NOT without givin a huge bone for this extraordanary Doggy, +_+Gabe+-=+-, Also, there is an event around my area, which i have started up, its basically a compo for talented dogs, I've already done one rescently rewarding 1000$+ a spot on a local dog show, but this time i thought i'd ask some different people if they'd like to help or sighn up for this, basically me and my *assosiates* i looking for talented dogs to send in a video of there most best tricks, the video consists of 2minutes of whatever tricks you may find your dog does best, three winning finalist will recieve, 500$ and a spot at the Wag and bone show, and the dock dogs 2008+ I'll mi up all the finalists videos and broadcast it on Akiraz blog fansite club, as you know of course im only 15 BUT i started out doing this from about 2yrs old.., just like your sons?? they copy and edit things??, and transitions+music and so on..., Anyway i was just going to ask if you'd like to sign up??, If you dont understand what im on about, Reply back Lol XD
That's amazing Sharny...you sound like quite the go-getter there! (and only 15!) Your show sounds wonderful...but aren't you in the UK? (so how could someone from the US get over there for the show?) :)
Lol sorry i didnt explaine it properly, Yep i am in the uk indeed XD, but as you probably guessed i think:S Im american, I'd probably fly over to the us as i have a house in calorardo south america (dominica) But basically, i need people to send in there video via email, and for Me and other people who are also joined inthis event to choose 3 dogs to recieve 500£ in usa money that would be 1000$, Of course you wouldn't want to travell all the way down here, so I've invited international people to send there video threw email,Lol did i just say that?, apart from that i've hosted 5 of these shows plus a hugeee convention in the u.s 5yrs ago, and the last event i did was 2weeks ago, where I choose 3 people..., Sammie from wwfido And her dog Layla won it although she couldm't accept the money (age im guessing..) But apart from that, SEND US UR VID XD, as I can see Gabei s a veryyyyyy talented dog, People from my neck of the woods have been told about Gabes videos and have obviously seen it and replied to me with overly positive comments!, apart from that, Its your choice Cheryl i dont mind:)
Hi! I Love Gabe!!!!! He is my FAVORITE dog on Worldwidefido.com (besides my dog Oscar of course). I love that if you sneeze he'll get you a tissue! I wish Oscar could that. Gabe is one of my pet pals. I show all my friends Gabe. Once again I love Gabe!!!!
Thanks David & Gracie...I love seeing all of the people (especially all the kids) having fun with their dogs. Everyone is so proud of their family dog & I think the Worldwide Fido Awards was a fun way to show them off! Thanks for the comments you two!
BTW David...Gabe picked up the kleenex trick by watching my girl, Chubbs (a 6 yr old bulldog) do it...after seeing her do it twice & get a reward from me, he beat her to it the next time! Same with opening the fridge--they really learn loads from an older, trained dog! Gabe saw Chubbs opening the fridge one day & I showed him how to do it a couple times--the next day I was at the computer & suddenly heard the fridge open...it was dinnertime & he was giving me a BIG HINT! LOL! :)
Chubbs knows how to do a basic retrieve, so I just showed her the box of tissue, used a signal (sneeze) & it didn't take long for her to bring the box to me (at first I point to it & tell her to "take it" ie her retrieve command in OB) I always make it very rewarding for the dog so they are very motivated to do whatever I'm asking. Chubbs is currently working on her Utility Dog (the highest level of OB training) & has 1 of the 3 legs needed to earn the title.
Thanks for watching Oscar's video. I was so happy that you watched it! Guess what? I also made a video with Oscar and his half-sister Itsy. Her real name is Quinn but she is so small that everyone calls her Itsy.
I'll have to go find Itsy's video, too. My Mom has a pom named Bitsy that weighs only about 5# :) Gabe is so funny with her...he lays down, then tries to push her over with his head!
Lool kewl, the best trick Akira knows is "feed the cats", Its rewarding when i cant be botherd to!, Erm Cheryl Im stopping the event by 10th so i may need all videos sent to my email adress if you would like to enter as well i have about a rough estimation of 57videos most by my local area but quite a few internationaly i even got someone from italy/ spain/ and greece!, i was quite shocked that everyone reads my magazine so much!, apart from that shaniquea@hotmail.co.uk XD, the only reasson why i need em by the 10th is because im going abroad to the U.S and of course i wont beable to use my laptop on the plane and stuff, so i'll be quite busy on the first few days, So think about it remember 500$ Prize Money and a spot at the wag n bone show! XD, c yaa, teaching Acks a new trick, hold it and peakaboo, Bi Cheryl thanks for your interest as well XD its great to have more people join my magazine+ network and fan club.
Cheryl, Oscar sometimes does the same thing with Itsy. He tries to knock her over with his head and they play around but eventually Oscar gets scared (even though Itsy is one third of Oscar's size).
Omg, I luv Pugsley u went nuts!!, Lol Hey Cheryl GUESS WHAT!, my passport expired last month!, SO I CANT GO ON HOLIDAY:(, my familys going without me XD i dont mind, that means that I've extended the (U know WHAT) My dogsjustice magazine IS OUT TODAY! 5,000Copys SOLD, chaching!, Also the professional dogsjustice website is out from 20th August www.dogsjustice.com, Be sure to check it out:) You'll see GABE XD, Bi Cheryl P.S no thanks u's nescasery XD

Cheryl...thx for the vote on T-Bone...he's not quite as active as Gabe as you can see..but we love him all the same...Gabe has stolen my heart...he is very similar to my first boy Bluto...you have inspired us...while T-bone is more interested in snuggles we may be able to teach his sister Dixie a few things...however something tells me there will never be another Gabe...He's one special guy...wishing you bulldog wiggles and sloppy kisses everyday!!!
Hey Dazzle & Mum! (hmmm...are you originally from Canada perchance? ;) You should have come up and introduced yourself! Will you be there tomorrow? It was a crazy day for us as we had FIVE entries between the three dogs...everything from Rally Excellent with Gabe & his Momma Pip, to Utility with my girl Chubbs (we bombed), Open A with Pip & Novice B with The Gabster...I lost Gabe a placement in his RE class due to a couple handler errors (whoops--guess you CAN'T clap in the excellent level!...and, I didn't pause well enough during the moving down :) Gabie missed a couple sits today in NB, so he was just out of the placements...but it's looking good for him to maybe make the Top Ten Non-Sporting for the year if we keep going like we are! Was Dazzle showing...or in agility?...or were you ring stewarding? Come up & meet us tomorrow if you're there...
That IS a crazy day!! Ah, the problem with obedience and agility (well, any dog sport I guess!), if only us handlers wouldn't mess our dogs up! I have done that too many times to count. Making the top ten is a fun goal! I bet he can do it. ;) Dazzle doesn't do AKC (we like ASCA for obedience and hopefully one day we can do Rally there too), I was just there to take some photos of a friend's first time showing in Utility obedience. His run is around 10 so that is when I will be there - so if you happen to see anyone with a Canon 40D taking photos of a Black-Tri Aussie in Utility....that's me!
Hi Cheryl and Gabe! Thank you for giving Lobo another vote! It is greatly appreciated. Lobo and I returned the favor and voted for you again too! Good luck with the rest of the competition :oD
GO CHERYL! congrats 2 U! you MADE IT!! GO GABE, GO GABE YOU MADE YOU MADE, IT IT IT IT! GABE MADE ITTTT! WAHOOOOO yaaay Akira sends The next *BIG* thing a bone!
good job on the video he is amazing.i liked the part where he was riding the horse my dog lilly does that on my real horse but she jumps off so i thought that was amazing that he stayed on and seemed to like it. i am voting for you everyday good job and good luck winning the fido awards stephanie and lilly
How did you ever get Gabe to ride a skateboard at 14 months.. just amazing! Hurkulez is 10 months old and we have been trying.. and tips on how to get him comfortable with it...?? Thanks so much love Hurkulez
Gabe & his sister actually started playing with the skateboard when they were only 3-4 months old & my niece & nephew were over. All of my bulldogs have been OBSESSED with skateboards (except for Gabe's Momma, Pip--she's a bit nervous after having a rough start in life)
Thanks for letting me know ! It must be in the genetics of the bulldog, very amazing! All the kids on our street ride skateboards and we have been working with him but he is still not too sure about it...
Thanks for voting for HURKULEZ - BEST DRESSED!
Hi, I've been tryin to get my new puppy Delilah (shes a yellow lab) to ride a skate board, but i cant! (shes only 11, weeks, should i waint longer?) Any tips on teaching her? or any of the tricks in this vidoe, their alll amazing!
Hey Sammie! I think a puppy is never too young to start learning--my first bulldog started riding the skateboard around copying her human "brothers" just after we got her at 10 weeks. Just keep it fun, reward her for "little steps" (ie, putting her front feet on the board) lure her with it...a couple steps & then treat, etc. Keep it happy, fun & BRIEF! Good luck!
And thanks so much to the others who've supported my boy!
thnx soooo much!!!! I will wait until shes a bit older, he paws dont even tound the groun when shes on the board--well, shed fall if they did, but thanks, i will keep loooking @ ur coment 4 anything i get stuck on! gabe is amazing, u 2 will make it 2 the top, i just know it!!!
