PACIFICA, Calif. (CBS) — For a great cause, dogs jumped on their surfboards and showed off their skills in California on Saturday.
Pacifica hosted the Third Annual Norcal World Dog Surfing Championship at Linda Mar Beach.
All the canines hoped to be crowned "top dog", but first they would need a little help from dog's best friend.
Over four dozen dogs participated in the event.
To successfully participate, the adventurous dogs needed a human to pick the right wave to take them all the way to the shore.

A portion of the proceeds goes to dog-related non-profit agencies.
