Splash

Distance jumping is the main feature of our events. Dogs run down a dock and fly into a competition pool, with the distance judged from the end of the dock to the base of the dog’s tail where it enters the water.

Fetch-It

A bumper is centered and is hung 2ft from the top of the dock. Each dog is allowed 4 attempts at Fetches and are out once they complete 4 attempts, or 2 misses overall – whichever comes first: If dog misses both chances at starting distance, dog is out. Once a dog gets 2 misses overall, or completes their 4 fetches their turn is over.

Chase-It

Dogs make a standing jump off the dock, swim to the 35ft mark in this timed race, with two chances for their best time, guided by two handlers.

Catch-It

Catch-It is like a Splash, with a major twist. If the dog makes the catch, two distances are recorded: where the dog makes the catch, and where the dogs tail lands in the water. Each dog gets 2 back-to-back chances to make their best catch. The distances are then added together for the score. Not only is it an added challenge for the dog to catch the toy while in mid-air, it also requires intense concentration, spot-on timing, and strategy from the handler. Catch-It is played by the most highly skilled teams. It is extremely fun to watch, and highly addicting!

Catch-It Pro

Catch-It Pro is the game that separates the veterans from the rookies! Catch-It Pro is a real trial by fire if you know what I mean… THIS IS IT! And it’s all about the connection between a handler and their K9… this bond is EVERYTHING in Catch-It Pro, because timing and trust is crucial. Unlike Catch-It, there is no Jump score… Catch-It Pro is only about… you guessed it… THE CATCH!! What you will see in this game is the crème de la crème... the very best of the best...
