Over 50 daring dogs fetched a different kind of stick last weekend, as they competed in a surfing contest in Imperial Beach, California. The event raised money for area schools via DonorsChoose.org, a charity that aids classroom projects.

It is beautiful.
No way would my dog be shark bait !
I loved the one near the beginning who was surfing backward! Very cute!
San Diego, represent! Abbie Girl was a natural.
NB: I. Can’t. Do. That!
Now this really is totally tubular!
The guy whose dog surfs on his back needs to be in the Men of Cute Overload calendar!
When IS that calendar coming out….? Waiting…waiting…waiting…
Yeah. He purty!
I didn’t know you played banjo Mel. :-O
I’m from Alabama. Why would I NOT play banjo?
What fun they had. Hang twenty, dude.
tandem division!!!!
Pure awesomeness!!! Love the little guy surfing in backwards.
Dude! All I need is a good buzz, some tasty waves, and I’ll be fine.
Louie makes it look easy!
Whay more can I say? You guys have said everything I was thinking of saying !
Grip it and rip it.
bulldogs seem to dominate the dog-surfing world. who knew? and i wonder if abbie-girl’s owner is single and/or willing to move to NJ…
Stockiness does seem to be a competitive advantage!
I’m pretty sure the bulldog was the captain of that awesome 5-dog tandem event. Heh.
Low center of gravity, I suppose…
Oh yeah, that bulldog is seriously badass!
I love how Abbie’s person wears her like a backpack, even on land. This is such a cool event, and for an AWESOME, AWESOME cause (if you don’t know donors choose, check it out).
this brought tears to my eyes. hormones much? nah…. just animals and humans loving being with each other!
That was very cool, I guess surfing is a bit easier when you have four legs and a low centre of gravity!
Was a teensy bit concerned about the little dog on the surfboard with the guy and girl who jumped off and then had the board go over his head, hope he was ok!
Yeah! Espesh since he didn’t pop right back up……
Yayyyy! I just moved to IB a month ago and was so excited to find out this was going on right down my street! It was fantastic and I “awwwww”-ed my brains out. SO MANY PUPS! My pugs had a blast meeting their long-lost pug relatives
They showed this video on TMZ,because one of the reporters dogs surfed this event.lol
TMZ has reporter dogs?? Where have I been?
Gosh, these people know how to have fun!! Love it.
So, which one is Moondoggie?
I think that smile on my face is gonna be stuck there all day now
