It’s no secret that almost all dogs love water, but very few are making waves like these two border collies. One-year-old Anna and six-year-old Indi have been thrilling crowds at surfing competitions for dogs after taking to the sport like a duck to water. With the help of their owner, Zane Jones, the four-legged surfers use their low centre of gravity to keep them stable while hanging ten off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Anna and Indi, owned by 32-year-old Zane Jones, have been surfing since they were about 10 weeks old . Zane, a 32-year-old search and rescue crewman, said: ‘I have been surfing for around 16 years, but when we got Indi, I suddenly had a new riding partner. ‘She would perch on the front of the board and as we caught the waves occasionally lifting one paw up as if she was hanging five, which is Indi's famous trade mark. ‘Anna was exactly the same, they both loved the water from the very first day we took them to the beach.’ Zane and his partner, Caitlin Ollier, 26, have owned the dogs, who both began surfing when they were just 10 weeks old, since they were puppies. Indi, who won a runners-up medal at a competition, has been trained to lift her paw to 'hang five' The dogs use their low centre of gravity to keep them stable while surfing in Queensland, Australia . The dogs haven’t won a competition yet, but their owners are hoping they can top their best result to date – a runners-up medal for Indi and the Noosa Festival of Surfing. Zane said: ‘Both girls are naturals when it comes to balance and knowing where to stand on the board. ‘When I take Indi and Anna out on the waves at our local surfing spot we always draw a big crowd of people who watch from the board walk or the beach. ‘We even get stopped when we go for walks as people are starting to recognise the girls. ‘Hopefully we can improve our competition performance in the future, but the girls are getting better every day.'
