Dog House Blog On Surfing Saturday!

Molly The Wally Surfing!

Canines of all shapes and sizes took part in the fifth annual Surf City Surf Dog competition at Huntington Beach, California. The organised event divided the participants into four weight class divisions, from under 9kg to larger dogs weighing more than 27kg. The dogs were judged on how long they could stay on the board, as well as their confidence while riding the waves. Whilst most dogs donned life jackets to hit the waves, others surged in style wearing elaborate costumes. Huntington Beach is known for its unique surf break, and is a favourite spot for surfers taking part in the US Open of surfing, the largest competition in the world. So today on surfing Saturday we bring you Surf Dog Ricochet Loews Coronado Bay Resort Contest with Kona & Antonio. Enjoy!

    Rain rain go away , come again another day.
    Oh my that video sort of made me want to dress all those peeps in heavy yellow feathered bird costumes and send them out on rickity surf boards into shark infested waters ( just a fleeting idea really I am a nice dog) ...err I am sorry . My friend the Golden dog just didn't look very happy surfing that day !
    Woof to those silly peeps

    Ok, Sam just passed out - he isn't a big fan of water. I (Wally) on the other hand think I may just be a born surfer!! Pity I live inland though...wonder if I can get some waves going in my paddle pool?
