This special dog day isn’t just about having the perfect canine surfing form. The Surf Dog Surf-A-Thon also held two different contests for freestyle surfers: one for dogs and their humans and the other for pups who like to ride in packs. Judges awarded points and chose winners for these contests based on the creativity the participants brought to surfing. And for the dogs who didn’t want to get their paws wet, the event even had a costume contest.

Overall, it was a day of sun and fun, where canine surfers proved that dogs of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds can learn to surf. Proceeds from the event will go to the numerous programs Helen Woodward Animal Center has to help pets achieve their dreams.
