This is the adorable moment a pet dog was seen wakeboarding – being pulled behind a boat with its owner in Mexico.

Footage shows the surfing pooch balancing on his own little blue board while the motorboat travelled ahead on them on the river in Alvarado, Veracruz, on May 2.

The unidentified pet owner and his dog passed under the bridge while practising the extreme water sport together.

Amused locals diving from the structure to cool off in the water stopped in amazement to watch the cute pair enjoy their weekend recreation on the Papaloapan river.

Onlooker Hugo Severino said he was walking along the shore with a friend when the boat passed by and they noticed the ice-cool pooch.

He said: ‘I was walking along the embankment when a person told me about the dog.

‘At first I only saw the motorboat then I noticed the cute dog following behind on a board. He was so cool.

‘My friend and I enjoyed watching them. It made our day.’

Hugo said that the motorboat left after passing by but the dog and the owner are well known in the area.

He added: ‘I heard they usually visit here. People told me they are very close and are always doing things together.’
