What is Dock Diving?
Dock diving is a canine sport that originated in the United States, which involves making a dog jump off a dock into the water to catch a thrown or suspended toy.
There are several disciplines within this activity:
-
Long Jump
-
High Jump
-
Extreme Vertical
-
Aerial Retrieval
It is a spectacular sport, but above all very fun and stimulating for dogs who love water, movement, and play.

Beyond the impressive and playful aspect, dock diving offers numerous benefits for your dog:
-
Complete Physical Exercise : jumping, running, and swimming engage the entire musculature.
