Summary
In its 10th year, the contest in Pacifica, about 14 miles south of San Francisco, includes a pet adoption event and fundraising for local animal charities. "And then ... he didn’t want to get off,” said Sadlowski, of Huntington Beach, California. “I walk over to the beach, and I put him on a wave, and he surfed it.” Small-, medium- and large- sized dogs competed in heats and then the highest scoring dogs in each heat faced off for the top prize. Top dogs were riding waves Saturday at the annual World Dog Surfing Championships as hundreds of spectators cheered -- and barked -- from the Northern California beach.
Furthermore, Sophia Sadlowski first put her Miniature Pinscher, Rusty, on her surfboard to capture fun photos when he was just a puppy. Rusty's life jacket was green with animal print and a shark fin sticking up out of his back and his goggles gave the impression he was a fierce competitor for the small-sized and tandem dog competitions. Sadlowski said Rusty was in his first surf competition at four months old, and she and her pup are now both cancer-free. “He was four months old, and he took third place.
In addition, So we've been surfing since," Sadlowski said. “We got hooked.”.
