Discover the Thrilling World of Dock Diving with North America Diving Dogs!
North America Diving Dogs (NADD) is an organization that has enhanced the sport by collaborating with dock diving facilities and competitors throughout North America.
NADD titles are recognized by the American Kennel Club (AKC) though the AKC’s Title Recognition Program. Your dog does not have to be an AKC registered dog to participate in a North America Diving Dogs trial.
If you are new to the sport, most of the dock diving facilities have training programs for you and your dog to learn about dock diving.
NADD is open for all breeds and mixes!
We have created divisions so any size and age of dog can achieve excellence.
- The Open class is for all-size dogs.
- The Lap Class is for all dogs under 16″ at the withers. If you have a Lap Class dog it can achieve the same titles as the Open Class but does not have to jump the same distance.
- The Veterans division is for dogs turning 8 before the end of the season The selection process will be the same as for distance veterans. The top veteran in each discipline at a qualifier will receive an invite, unless a veteran has already placed in the top 3 in that division for that event.
North America Diving Dogs recognizes every qualifying jump that your dog earns toward a title no matter what division it is earned in. Qualifying jumps add up to Titles throughout your dog’s entire career.
Your NADD titles will be recognized by both AKC & CKC.
Dock Diving is one of the fastest growing sports for you and your dog!
Dedicated to Success
North America Diving Dogs is staffed by individuals passionate about the sport and the competitors (the dogs) both new & experienced, so we want both the events and competitors to be successful in the sport of dock diving. All facilities are independently owned. NADD has 7 portable docks that brings dock diving to the AKC shows, as a special attraction, to introduce more dogs to the sport.
