Other Notes
Splashdown will spend the weekend exploring the disciplines of Air Retrieve and Hydrodash! In addition to being able to compete in HD and AR each of the two days, those who wish will be offered the opportunity for instruction in these two disciplines.
We will offer an introductory clinic on Saturday morning in HD and a second clinic on Sunday morning focusing on AR. Clinic participants will learn the rules of each discipline and will be given ample opportunity to try these disciplines with their canine partners. Reach out to us a splashdowndogsports@gmail.com if you would like to be added to the clinic list or wish to have additional information about the clinics.
