What makes for a more exciting afternoon at the beach than
a dog surfing contest?
…
The recent 3rd annual Dog Surfing Competition at Los Cerritos was definitely a hit with all who attended. This contest is a fund raiser for Pescy Dogs, getting its name from the town El Pescadero, where it’s located.
Collecting donations!
…
Our community’s organization, Pescy Dogs, works 24/7 to provide shelter, medical care and most importantly love for sick, injured and/or homeless dogs in the El Pescadero area, BCS. http://www.pescydogs.org
…
Kim of Baja Zen http://baja-zen.com works tirelessly to put on this fun event.
Thanks, Kim!

Even if you missed the dog surfing contest at Los Cerritos on June 5th,
you still have a chance to donate to the Pescy Dogs.

We’re just a hop, skip, and jump from Todos Santos, but Pescadero has a different flare because we are more of a farming and beach community than our neighbor to the north.
Surfers share the beach with the fishermen too.

If you’re a surfer anywhere on the west coast of North America you’ve most likely heard of Los Cerritos. Any day of the week you will find people and dogs enjoying the beach, but on June 5th it was all about the canines!
The fans and their dogs and families!
Well, maybe some of the children had other ideas, but the surf dogs put on the best show.

The dogs were into it.
What a beauty!
Here goes Marshmallow again!
Go, Marshmallow, go!
Baraka is on the beach all the time with Juan Carlos. Today it looks like she can walk on water!
Dismount with grace!
Sweet pup named Surfo!
Meanwhile, back on the beach–boys do what boys do! Dogs aren’t the only ones who dig holes.
The shovel is for–well–you know.
Back to the contest: Sully is Tillman’s brother. And Tillman was a famous canine surfer, better known as a skateboarder. He has his own Facebook Page too: https://www.facebook.com/TillmanSkates
Sully has lots of spunk and style. See for yourself.
Making his brother proud.
Pirata is a local Cerritos dog who belongs to Perry. What a great surfer (Perry too).
