   The 60-pound dog even turns and does tricks. “He just pulled a no-comply, top-shove-it move that we got on tape,” says Tillman’s owner, 40-year-old Ron Davis, as the bulldog showed off his skills in Tompkins Square Park in New York. Tillman traveled from Southern California for the “Bark in the Park” event,

    “He just pulled a no-comply, top-shove-it move that we got on tape,” says Davis, who has also trained Tillman to surf and snowboard. “What can I say? He’s an adrenaline junkie.” Named after the late NFL star and U.S. Army Ranger Pat Tillman, the board-crazy canine set the world record in 2009 by rolling 100 meters in 19.6 seconds.

    The World's Fastest Skateboarding Dog became the official “spokes-dog” for Natural Balance during the 2009 Tournament of Roses ® Parade, where he skateboarded along the 52-foot track on the Natural Balance float.

    Because of his increased popularity, Tillman, the Fastest Skateboarding Dog in the world, makes appearances at special events across the country.  

   Some key stats about Tillman: He weighs about 60 pounds; his favorite toy is a skateboard; and his favorite food is apples. At 9 months, he was skateboarding on all fours and by 15 months he was turning. This adventurous dog also snowboards, skimboards and surfs. Favorite Food : Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance - especially the A.M.P. Ultra Active Dry Formula and any of the Dog Food Rolls!

    Tillman's Highlights include: 2010 Rose Parade, 2009 Rose Parade Float, “Greatest American Dog” (CBS), Apple iPhone commercial, “Animal Planet”, “National Geographic”, “NBC Nightly News”, “The Today Show”, “The Early Show”, “The Craig Ferguson Show”, “KTLA News”, “FOX 11 News”, “ABC News”, Armstrong Flooring commercial, and San Diego Tourism ads just to name a few.

   Tillman, the World's Fastest Skateboarding Dog was recently named to Time Magazine's "Top 50 YouTube videos of All-Time," with over 20 million views on YouTube.

   
Davis attributes Tillman’s skateboarding skills to his sturdy body and unique warmup method. “Tillman’s ritual before he skates is to chew on each wheel,” says Davis. “I think it’s a way of lubing them up and checking the tire pressure.
