Disc, Trick and Dock Diving Dogs Keep Fit
We are always looking for fun activities to do with our dogs. Last weekend we saw amazing disc, scent and trick dogs in our Talent Showcase at Canadian Pet Expo. The training and practise provide great mental and physical exercise for all the amazing dogs that performed.
Proud to say we won the 2015 award:
We also watched the Ultimate Air Dogs Canada Dock Diving. The dogs seemed to absolutely love it and they all looked very fit. Dock Diving combines chasing, jumping and catching with swimming. Even dogs wearing life jackets were very enthusiastic participants, although I can’t see Kilo the Pug enjoying it (he is not a fan of water and only likes catching treats).
They had contests for height and distance I believe. Some of the dogs got serious air. They moved so fast it was hard to capture the jumps.
Happy Fit Dog Friday and have a great weekend.
I love the dock diving events.
We do too and so did these dogs. Have a great weekend!
Amazing photos and great ways to keep fit!
Wow some talented dogs. AKC has started recognizing dock diving. If Freighter ever finishes up his Championship we are going to look into that maybe for next Spring. 🙂
We love watching disc and dock diving. Those dogs are amazing!
Mr. N is in Kilo’s camp. It’s fun watching though!
Wow! I love all the talent in this video! From super impressive to super cute! Congrats on your nomination!
I love the idea of dock diving! Barley’s with Kilo, though–she’s mad if the waves splash her toes when we walk on the beach and she’s only really interested in catching treats and select stuffed toys. It certainly is fun to see the pictures of dogs in action, though!
