[ cover story ] Dropping In on Jojo Celebrity corgi still surfing at age 12 By Brady Rhoades Photography courtesy @SuperCorgi_Jojo S urfing champion Jojo is an international celebrity, and his fame comes with a price. OK, who’s kidding whom? It’s not a price. It’s a perk. On multiple occasions, we’ve been strolling around the mall, and people will randomly approach us and ask, “Is that SuperCorgi Jojo? The surfing corgi?!” said Josephine Zosa, Jojo’s human. “They always ask if they can get a photo or pet him. It’s so nice when that people recognize him.” Jojo entered his first surf competition in Del Mar, California, in 2015 and raised over $2000 for Helen Woodward Animal Center. He competed in Florida in 2016. In Huntington Beach, California, in 2017, Jojo won third place in a surf com -petition. In 2019, Jojo won his first surfing title in Hawaii. And that would explain this San Diego local’s “surfer dude” personality. “He knows if we’re going to the beach. Each time I pack his surfboard, he gets super excited and runs to the front door,” Zosa said. “He loves to sunbathe.” 24 petcompanionmag.com
