Leave the leash, treats, toys and water bowls at home — these dogs are totally content on riding waves — and make for some pretty cute pics, too.
The annual World Dog Surfing Championships went down near San Francisco Saturday, and it featured tons of pooches who threw on their life vests and went out to catch some waves … all in the name of charity and good fun.
The event is pretty self-explanatory — you place your pup on a surfboard and take ’em out to sea, push them up onto a relatively small wave (whitewater, really) and see how long they can stay on. In the case of some of these doggos, they were able to cruise pretty far!
As far as how this is scored … it comes down to confidence, style and, of course, how long they can maintain their balance. As it turns out, there were some top dogs to be crowned.
Seven different categories were under consideration — including Small/Medium/Large/XL solo rides … as well human-dog and dog-dog tandems. There was also a category for best in show — and that ended up going to a little guy named Carson, a Terrier of some sort.
Like we said … this thing benefits great causes — including raising money for nonprofits pertaining to dog rescues, surfing and environmental efforts. Folks who attended also had the opportunity to adopt shelter and rescue dogs … a win-win for pets and prospective owners.
Indeed, this was freakin’ paw-some!
