The 2015 Surf Dog Competition Gives Us Another Great Reason To Hit The Beach

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)
