15 Years

of Surfing Dogs

From First Point to the Festival

Our love of extraordinary dog stories started in the surf

For 15 years, VetShopAustralia has brought dogs, surfers and thousands of spectators together at the Surfing Dog Championships in Noosa.

From dogs balancing on boards at First Point to remarkable canine stories lighting up the big screen, we’re proud to celebrate the adventures that show how much brighter life is with a dog beside you.

Meet the 2026 Champion

Loui was born to make waves

With confidence, connection and plenty of personality, Loui and his human took to the waves at First Point and surfed their way to the 2026 Surfing Dog Championship title.

His story is about more than the trophy, it’s about trust, shared adventures and the joy dogs bring to everyone around them.
