More than 50 canine competitors have been catching waves in California, as part of a dog surfing contest.<br /><br /> The pooches posed on their boards as they battled it out in different heats. <br /><br /> Sandra Lew’s dog Kalani came first in one of the categories. <br /><br /> “Really, she does it. It’s all her, you saw her balancing on the board, turning 360s, 180s. I didn’t teach her that, that’s the dog,” she said.<br /><br /> James Walls, the owner of another four-legged surfer, added: “Well, for one, my dog loves the water and loves surfing. And two, it’s a great cause, money is going towards the San Diego Humane Society.”<br /><br /> For those doggy dudes that lost out this time around, there is always next year. The dog surfing contest is an annual event in San Diego.
