NEXT WAVE SURF DOGS
Albee the Surf Dog
Known throughout the surf world simply as "Albee the Brown Dog," this San Diego regular has been racking up hardware at the Helen Woodward Animal Center's Surf Dog Surf-A-Thon in Del Mar — most recently taking home 1st place in the medium dog division and, even bigger, the Best in Surf title. Albee's also no stranger to teamwork, having teamed up with fellow surf dog Iza for a podium finish in the freestyle Duos and Trios contest. Solo or tandem, Albee shows up ready to compete — and win.
“Albee's always had that look in his eyes like the ocean owes him something. People ask me all the time when I knew he was different, and honestly? It was the first time he paddled out and came back with more medals than sand in his fur, I knew he was my soul mate for life.”
-- Kristina Chang - Albee's Human
