Tails are wagging over the announcement of the 2013 VetShopshopAustralia.com.au Surfing Dog Spectacular, which is set to take place for the second time running at this year's Noosa Festival of Surfing at 4:30pm on the 10th of March at Noosa Main Beach.

The four legged surfers rode a wave of success last year, drawing the largest crowd of the entire event and this year is tipped to be no different, with Natural Balance Dog Trainer, Chris DeAboitiz and pro surf dog, Lani already in training to steal the show.

Rumour also has it that Rama, the young kelpie, who scored last year's best wave award has been practicing getting his paws on the nose as well and has no intention of letting any other surf pup get their claws on this year's trophy.

Head Veterinarian at VetShopAustralia.com.au, Dr Mark Perissinotto said he was overwhelmed with the response of last year's event and had no hesitation with running it again this year.

"The event was so much fun for both surfers and spectators in 2012 and we are so excited to be having the surfing dogs back on board again at this year's festival of surfing." he said.

Dr Perissinotto also announced that the surfing dogs would again be making their splash as part of the opening ceremony and assured that spectators would not be disappointed with the show.

"We hope the same crowd will come along this year and show some support for the furry surfers who will no doubt be giving the pro surfers a run for their money."

"It really is just a fun event that the whole family can come along to enjoy; it's not every day you get to see a dog riding a surfboard!"
