Dog surfing competition for top dog title in the world
Dogs can’t gather this year for Helen Woodward Animal Center’s annual canine surfing contest at Del Mar’s Dog Beach, but the contest is still on, virtually. Dog surfers can show their prowess riding the waves on video. Contestants are expected from around the world.
Even though dogs don’t have to practice social distancing during the pandemic, they can’t gather this year at Del Mar’s Dog Beach for the annual canine surfing contest run by Helen Woodward Animal Center.
But pooches can still compete for the top dog title in a virtual contest by having their families send videos showing their prowess on the waves.
Typically, the competition draws dozens of dogs from throughout California, but this year the contest is going global and has already attracted competitors from Japan and the U.K.
