A unique competition took place in Northern California, where dogs of various breeds and sizes participated in a surfing event. The contest, now in its tenth year, features a judging criteria that assesses the dogs' ability to balance on their boards. The event also includes activities that promote animal welfare, such as pet adoption and fundraising for local charities.

Dogs were equipped with colorful life vests and assisted by human helpers who guided them on the surfboards. Further information about this event can be found through KSAT 12's source, which provides more details about the competition and its activities.
