We love our surfing animals and next weekend’s fourth annual Surf City Surf Dog competition in Huntington Beach, CA. is a celebration of their athletic prowess! Be part of the action September 28-30, 3012 for three days of doggone fun for all.

Once again, California’s dog-friendly Huntington Beach’s Dog Beach will be the site of this year’s competition since it’s specifically for the dogs. At Dog Beach, our four-legged friends rule year-round, and play, swim, dig and have a plain old fun time… mostly all off-leash.

Some of the activities planned this year include an Opening Ceremony and Dog Is Beachin’ Fashion Show, Surf City Dog Spaw Costume Contest and Expo and conclude with the Surf City Surf Dog Competition on Sunday.

For the competition, the surfing pooches will take part in four different weight classifications, from small dogs weighing under 20lbs. to extra-large pooches weighing in at more than 60lbs. Last year, more than 40 dogs competed at the event, with even a Guinness World record set by Abbie Girl, an Australian Kelpie and her owner Michael Uy, for longest ride on a board at 60 meters.

We’re looking forward to seeing if more world records will be set this year.
