Another surf dog competition was held on Friday in Imperial Beach. Read more and see the photos at Surfing dogs fetch a look at annual event

The 75-pound English bulldog was just one of many canines trying to be top dog at the fourth annual surf-dog competition put on by Loews Coronado Bay Resort yesterday.

To lesser dogs, heading into the chilly surf under the gray skies at Imperial Beach might have given them – excuse this – paws. But not a fierce competitor like Dozer.

"He's a typical bulldog, with a low center of gravity. He just hangs on and refuses to give up," Hokstad said. "He's not a water dog, so he's got the motivation to stay on the board."

Is that how its done?
