Dog Surfing Championships: Festival takes place in Dorset
- Published
Pups and their owners have taken to the sea in the UK's annual Dog Surfing Championships.
Now in its fourth year, the contest is an all-day event with live music and food.
Some competitors chose to dress up for the occasion as familiar faces such as the Queen and Scooby Doo and made a splash alongside their canines at the Dog Masters 2022 event.
One competitor, Elizabeth Wilkinson, dressed as her namesake and headed for the waves as the Queen in a white gown, grey wig and crown.
Dogs were pictured helping their owners on the paddleboards on Saturday as they fought for a winning spot in the competition at Branksome Dene Chine beach in Poole, Dorset.
And one dog sported a shark fin, which was attached to its life jacket!
