Skateboarding Dogs. Yes, Skateboarding Dogs.
“When someone sees a dog skateboarding, they go, ‘Wow, that was awesome!’ ” says the dogs’ owner and trainer, Omar Von Muller, 49, a Colombian native of part-German heritage, with intense dark eyes, craggily handsome features and a ball cap. “But they don’t realize the hundreds of hours I put into that. And in those hundreds of hours this dog got a lot of exercise, a lot of play, a lot of things that he really likes to do. ”
While today’s skateboarding session is just for fun, and offers tourists and beach walkers a sensational free show, Von Muller used to take his show to the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, where an hour and a half would yield $350 cash.
