A skateboarding Dachshund named Rowdy has skills, a sponsor, and quite a social media following.

The 6-year-old dog from Hollywood, who has more than 304,000 followers on Instagram, explores skate parks throughout Southern California with her owners.

"It could be anywhere from El Sereno, Rosemead, North Hollywood, Chevy Chase," her "dad," Ivan Cano, said.

At four months old, Rowdy accidentally discovered her skills with skateboards around the house.

"She pushed her weight and flipped the skateboard over to get over into our hallway area," her "mom," Kim Estrada, said. "And we were like: Oh my gosh. What are we going to do?"
