Dock Diving
(Group and Private sessions available)
To learn to dive your dog needs to be at least 6 months old. Your dog will have greater success if they are confident swimmers and have a strong desire to fetch or strong desire to possess a toy. While having a love of the water is important, the stronger their desire to go after a toy the greater their success.
Dogs will learn beginner dock diving by going in and out of the pool on a ramp. As they gain confidence running down the ramp and into the pool,they will start to jump from mid ramp and eventually they will love to run off the dock.
We will cross train your dog across the main disciplines to help coordinate and strengthen different muscle groups, helping to get the strongest and best jumps. They will train in Air Retrieve, Extreme Vertical, Hydro Dash, and of course, in Distance Jumping.
Once jumping confidentally, you and your dog can join group classes and if you desire, train to enter NADD or other national events earning diving titles.
ONLY DOGS ARE PERMITTED JUMP OFF THE DOCK. NO EXCEPTIONS
