See Spot Surf at the Loews Surf Dog Competition in Imperial Beach

See Spot surf during the Loews Coronado Bay Resort Surf Dog Competition on August 18 in Imperial Beach—the nation’s only surfing competition for man’s best friend. There’s no dog paddling for these surf dogs. At the Surf Dog Competition, our canine counterparts are invited to hang 10 (errr, 20) for a great cause.

  Last year, hundreds of surf dogs, owners and spectators gathered in Imperial Beach, Calif., to watch the competition. An even bigger crowd is expected at this year’s event.

The Loews Coronado Bay Resort Surf Dog Competition stems from an overwhelming response to the Resort’s Su’ruff Camp package, which was named “an amazing thing to do with your dog” by Life magazine and Modern Dog magazine. Since Su’ruff Camp debuted in January 2006, more than 40 Surf Dog packages have been sold.

The cost to enter the competition is $40 for Surf Dogs in Heat One and $50 for Teams in Heat Two. Attendance is free. Snacks and beverages will be available for purchase at the event.

  All proceeds will benefit the Resort’s Good Neighbor Council, a group of employees who volunteer their time to help raise money for various non-profit organizations, including Modest Needs and PAWS of Coronado.
