Let’s end the Dock Diving Season and say goodbye to summer with a Splash or Two or Three!!!
We are trying something NEW with this event – running it AFTER our Fast CAT event!
Registration, Check-In and Payment
- Pre-registration is recommended, but we will accept Day Of entries provided there are spots available. All spots are on a first come basis
- Per the updated NADD rules, any splashes dropped after the closing date or at check-in will incur a no-show. Splashes can be exchanged (splash #1 for #2) without penalty. A competitor can choose to pay for all the splashes they entered and scratch without incurring a no-show.
- Splash check-in will close 1/2 hour before each splash begins.
- Be sure to sign all necessary waivers at check in.
- Splashes include up to three minutes on the dock for one optional practice jump and two judged jumps. You must inform the judge prior to your jump if you want it to be considered a “practice jump”.
- This event is an Open Splash event. The time for each splash for the day will be set such as 1pm for example for all the splashes. You have between the posted start time and end time (either before AR starts or the end of the last day, usually 5pm) to complete your splashes for the day. When you check in you will be handed Splash Cards for each splash that you pay for. When you are ready to jump during the day, hand a splash card to the wrangler to get put into the running order. It is the handler’s responsibility to be sure to be present it before their turn to jump. Please be aware that at many events, the running order board fills very quickly and early in the day.
- Please Note: You must pay for all pre registered splashes at time of check-in. Any splashes not paid for will be put back into the event’s on-site registration availability list and result in a no-show. If you are registering multiple dogs there will be a no-show for each dog. You are responsible for all pre-registered splashes.
- Each distance jumping Splash allows 2 judged jumps, back to back. The longest jump of them will be your Qualifying Score.
- You can earn a Diving Dog Title at this event. You must have five Qualifying Scores within a Division. NADD titles are recognized by the AKC and CKC through their recognition programs. View their applications here (AKC) and here (CKC).
