Last weekend, over 60 dogs took to the waters of Huntington Dog Beach for the 7th Annual Unleashed by Petco Surf City Surf Dog Competition. We searched through the #surfcitysurfdog photos on Instagram and found some winners, some wipeouts, and a whole lot of fun!

Born and raised in Minnesota, I made my way to the sunshine state in 2009 where I studied Public Relations and Advertising at Chapman University. As the Content & Creative Services Manager at Visit Huntington Beach, I am tasked with sharing the amazing vacation experience that awaits in Surf City USA through various media channels.
