Surfing dogs in California contest!

 

Doggy dudes hit the surf  ANANOVA

About 60 doggy dudes have been taking to the waves for America’s largest surfing competition for dogs.

Kitted out in surf-wear, including Hawaiian shirts and sunglasses, the dogs competed in the 3rd Annual Loews Coronado Bay Resort Surf Dog Competition at Imperial Beach in California.

Each dog and team had three waves to impress the judges who were scoring on confidence level, length of ride and overall ability to “grip it and rip it.”

But there could only be one top dog in each category and TJ the Spanish spaniel took first place in the ‘Small surf dogs’ category, Stoli the black Lab scooped gold in the ‘Large’ surf dogs category, and Zoey the Jack Russell (with his owners) fetched first in the ‘Teams’ category – dogs surfing with their owners.
