Over 50 dogs invaded Imperial Beach, California for the 2015 Unleashed by Petco Surf Dog Competition. The famous SURFice Dog Ricochet was in attendance, as well as newbies – all trying to catch the best wave. Professional surfer and pet parent Taylor Knox judged the competition alongside a panel of professional surf competition judges. Who was top dog? Winners for each category were: Ziggy (small dog heat), Abbie (medium dog heat, Kalani (Large dog heat), Hanzo (X-large dog heat), and Kalani and Hanzo (Tandem). Check out these amazing shots of these happy dogs enjoying some fun in the sun! (All photos provided by Unleashed by Petco)
