A surfer in an embarrassing situation.. An animal steals it in the middle of the ocean

A video with more than 3 million views documented the theft of a surfboard by a water dog off the California coast.

The video shows the water dog snatching a surfboard while its owner was swimming away.

The animal quickly swims away from the site, while a surfer chases after it, retrieving the board.

And the surfer gets into a fight with the water dog to get the board, and sprays it with water trying to push him to leave it, according to the British newspaper “Daily Mail”, which published the video.

As the surfer tries to push the water dog off the board, the animal appears unfazed by the situation, so the video ends without revealing the victorious side.
