VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - It was a memorable year for Team STIHL's Tom Dropik and his powerhouse black Labrador Retriever Rocky. A long-time veteran of the sport, Dropik took the position of expert analyst on the television show DockDogs Unleashed on the Outdoor Channel. Dropik also qualified 4-year-old Rocky for the 2008 STIHL Dogs & Logs World Championships in Stillwater, Minn., which begins airing on the Outdoor Channel in December.
"I first and foremost want to thank STIHL for all their support, I couldn't do this with out them," said Dropik. "I'm looking forward to another successful run in 2009. Keep your eye out for us. We'll be the ones sporting the black and orange and flyin' high."
Tune in beginning January 14 to the Outdoor Channel to catch the high flying action of STIHL Dogs & Logs World Championships presented by Cabela's.
