Cocoa Beach, FL – Lily, the surfing yellow labrador retriever, didn’t let sharks keep her from winning the 10th Annual East Coast Dog Surfing Championships for the second time in a row.
Taking place over Easter Sunday, this year’s championships did face their first-ever shark delay. The only harm the sharks did was to the event’s schedule, forcing a half-hour delay to wait for the fish to vacate the area.
As for the 2022 East Coast Dog Surfing championship, Lily quickly became the crowd favorite as she caught wave after wave with what appeared to be little effort. Bolt was a close second (he even caught one wave in backwards!) but was unable to take the lead from Lily as she pawed her way into retaining the title again this year.
Other award winners were Pancake, who won the Dog Bikini Contest, and Nugget, who won the Buddy Award.
