Life is better in the summertime.
There’s no ice to chip off your windshield or snow to shovel in the driveway. You can wear what you want — whether that’s a bathing suit or shorts and a t-shirt, and you can enjoy fun in the sun with your furry best friend .
Already thinking of things to do next summer? TikTok user, @jeff_gazzola , has you covered. He shared a video of his golden retriever riding a water flyboard that will blow you out of the water!
So Many Dogs Have Been Making a Splash Online
While some dogs prefer land activities like playing fetch and chasing squirrels, others prefer to be out on the open water.
Like Duma, a Jack Russell who became an overnight celebrity for being about to waterski. This is a water sport where an individual (or dog) wearing a pair of skis on their feet is towed behind a fast-moving boat.
“She stands here, and, we don’t glue her feet down or anything, she’s just got a good grip and she’s got good balance,” her owner told Global BC . “She wakeboards behind a real powerful RC boat and she’ll actually go like 20mph.”
That famous waterskiing squirrel had nothing on her!
Waterskiing is One Thing, Flyboarding Is Entirely Another
This is an extreme water sport where athletes are propelled high above the water using equipment called flyboards. While it’s not for the faint of heart, it is doable by a dog!
TikTok user @jeff_gazzola proved this on the app by sharing a video of his golden retriever flying above the water.
That is one brave dog!
The Golden Could Certainly Hang 10
People loved to see it! Jeff’s video quickly went viral, racking up over 457k views and tons of comments from excited viewers.
“This dog is living a better life than me,” one wrote. Seriously, though, we wish we had access to these cool activities! “He’s like, ‘I’m flying!!!’” commented @desiraemohr, making reference to a famous line in Titanic .

“He has the biggest smile on his face! “He is loving that,” a user wrote. Others commented on how trusting the dog was.
He must be a good swimmer, which makes this next comment make sense: “You were required to wear a life jacket but not the dog,” a user commented with a laughing emoji.
