Shanklin’s Surfing Dog

Back in March, I stuck up a video of a skateboarding dog, (video has since been deleted) asking for anyone to come forward if they knew of similarly talented canines in Ventnor.

A two year old labrador called Sherrie has been surfing since she was six months old and practises every day down on Dunroamin Beach.

So are we going to let Shanklin top us? If you have a pet who can perform an unsual feat, get in touch and we’ll cover it on the blog.
