GERMAN SHEPHERD Service Dog Surfboard

Meet the Legend: The German Shepherd

Every lineup needs a sargeant, and the German Shepherd is the one holding down the peak at the Huntington Beach Pier. While the groms are busy chasing inside foam, the GSD is out the back, eyes locked on the horizon, waiting for that one set wave that clears the jetty.

She doesn’t just surf; she patrols. With ears like radar dishes, she can hear a swell pulse from three miles out. Some say she's the unofficial lifeguard of the "Originals" crew, but don’t let the serious face fool you—once she's locked into a high-line on her longboard, that tongue is out and she's strictly here for the stoke. If you see her on the Northside, give her a whistle; she might just share her line, but she's definitely taking the wave of the day.
