Other Notes
We expect this to be the BIGGEST dock diving event in Western Canada for the 2018 season!
FRIDAY 10 am -1pm- Training session- Beginner or advanced dogs welcome, please pre-register by email at erin@kinderdoggin.com to reserve a spot.
Friday 3 -5 pm & 6-8pm - "Drop In" style competitions in Timed Retrieve & Fast Fetch. Show up during one of these time slots to enter and compete. These two events are not sanctioned by NADD so don't count towards rankings or titles BUT will count towards Western Cup Champion points and placement ribbons & trophies will be awarded for each division.
Timed Retrieve -brief overview- dogs starting just behind 20 foot mark on the dock to race towards bumper suspended at the end of the pool. The time starts when the dog crosses the 5 foot mark on the dock and ends when they reach the 8 foot mark on the return to the ramp.
Fast Fetch - brief overview- dogs have 60 seconds to make 3 retrieves from either the dock or ramp or a combination. The 3 retrieves must add up to at least 60 feet (with the distance marked by where the dog grabs the bumper in the water). The dog is not permitted to catch the toy in the air and the time starts from when the first toy hits the water, ends when the dog crosses the 5 foot mark heading towards the ramp with the 3rd toy in their mouth. Some strategy required!
Check in on Saturday between 8-830 am. First Splash starts at 9am, Splash 2 to follow immediately. At noon on Saturday (between splashes 2 and 3) we are hosting a fundraiser event for the Smiling Blue Skies Cancer Fun. Bring cash for a chance at some amazing prizes provided by local sponsors! Splash 3&4 will follow, and Air Retrieve immediately afterwards. A Potluck Dinner is planned for Saturday evening.
Sunday morning - 8:30 am- FREE Canine First Aid Seminar provided by Dr. Bianca Scheidt from Animal Care Hospital. 10 am Splash 5, 6, 7, and then Distance Finals.
*** Special prizes and custom trophies are available from our wonderful sponsors, in addition to the usual NADD qualifying and title ribbon for sanctioned events!***
The Western Cup Champion will be the dog who earns the most points over the 4 weekend events: Timed Retrieve, Fast Fetch, Distance and Air Retrieve. Points will be earned based on how many dogs were defeated in each event, for that division. For example, if there were 10 dogs in the senior division of Air Retrieve, the winner would receive 9 points (defeated nine dogs in their division).
As with all of our trials, we will offer a High In Trial recognition award to the dog with the highest average who over 5 distance splashes.
A concession will be available on site (burgers, hot dogs, etc). Dry camping is also available on site for $10 per night.
All competitors and spectators are required to abide by site rules.
