Jumpy The Dog Performs Routine Made Famous By Skidboot, The Original ‘Pet Star’ Champion

Jumpy, the incredibly clever border collie mix, performs a routine demonstrating his highly honed skills in listening, responding and reacting with the help of his trainer Omar von Muller. This routine was originally performed in 2002 by the late Skidboot, the infamous dog who won the first season of the show Pet Star. Being that Jumpy is a dog who can do tricks on a skateboard, hang ten, run on walls, hang from trees, ride a scooter down a hill on his hind legs among other incredible sporting feats, it’s no surprise that he was able to pay homage to Skidboot with such dignity.
