I’m sure lots of of you have heard the popular lyrics of Surfin’ Bird, but I’m not so sure you’ve all heard about surfing dogs.
Just in case you don’t remember Surfin’ Bird was released way back in 1963…well before I was born. However, the song seems to resurface every few years in pop culture a lot of recently on the family Guy. In case you don’t know what I’m talking about maybe this will help:
A-well-a, everybody’s heard about the bird Bird, bird, bird, b-bird’s the word A-well-a, bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word A-well-a, bird, bird, bird, well, the bird is the word…
Ummm…Yep that’s pretty much the song…
Sorry, I get sidetracked sometimes…back to our subject: Surfing Dogs! We had heard about surfing dogs and surf pet dog competitions for years probably because we live only a few miles from the beach. However, this year is the first time we’ve been asked to volunteer at a booth representing guide Dogs of America at the surf City surf pet dog event in Huntington Beach, California.
Surf City surf pet dog Weekend
Surf City surf pet dog WebsiteSome of our guide pet dog puppy raiser pals have trained their occupation changed guide pet dog pups to surf. They have real surfing dogs! I’m not much of a surfer or a beach person so I never really considered teaching Stetson or Linus to surf. The other big problem in that equation is neither Stetson nor Linus really like the water…and yes, Stetson is a Lab…
It’s fine if you don’t have a surfing dog. You can still attend the surf City surf pet dog weekend as a spectator. However, if you have a pet dog that likes to surf then maybe you must consider entering him into the surf pet dog competition.
