Daily Mail: Surf looks ruff today! Daring dogs ride the waves for hilarious charity calendar #Dogs do not look like they are having fun
Dogs may be instinctively good at catching balls, but they are pretty clever at catching waves, too. These pooches would rather go boarding than walkies as they showed off their skills on sun-kissed beaches near San Diego, California.

| You tell me: is Zooey having fun? |
In one hilarious picture, Jack Russell Zoey hangs ten before being launched into the air from the force of the wave.
COMMENT: Hilarious to you, not so funny to Zooey.
They may be barking mad, but they love competing against other canines in four-legged competitions.
COMMENT: “Barking mad” indicates you have overused your allotted metaphors.
Animal shelter volunteer Dina Demeo-Grover, 55, and her late husband, photographer John, collected the snaps for her annual charity calendar. All the dogs have lifejackets and if the surf gets too much for them they can simply hop off the board and swim back to shore.
COMMENT: Through 10- to 20-foot waves? Which seem bigger to the Dachshound. Hmmm
New dogs are trained every year at special surf clinics while seasoned pets can improve their technique.
COMMENT: improvement means not drowning?
Dina's husband of 20 years died earlier this month, but she plans to continue with the calendar as a tribute to him.
COMMENT: another reason to agree with Woody Allen and hear people say at your funeral, “He’s alive.”
All money raised from the £8.20 calendar will go to a variety of charities, whose work includes animal rescue, children's welfare and aid for the elderly.
COMMENT: And devices to resuscitate dogs.
