I watched the AKC dock diving competition yesterday and was surprised at the drive and athletic abilities of the dogs. What a cool sport. This event was in April in Ocala, Florida. It was won by a Border Collie who jumped 26 FT 9 inches.

I first saw the event on TV. Immediately I was interested. Then I saw it again on TV. The champion was a presa. It win 2 or 3 years straight. I was shocked and surprised. I’ve decided to do it every since. The dog that beat the presa was a Malinois. I know a guy whose dog set the indoor and outdoor record for Dock Diving. His Malinois Baxter was amazing. It was challenging finding a place to train. But now I have a place.

Hey Gary!

such a cool shot! Dock diving looks like pure joy for dogs who love water. It’s impressive how athletic some breeds are. Proper training and safety make all the difference. Watching progress over time is rewarding. It also looks like great bonding. Finding event info felt like calling the pluto tv customer service phone number , scattered but available. Thanks for sharing the pics.
