🏆 BRAZEN MADE THE CUT! 🏆

We’re pretty excited to share this one — Brazen has officially made the TOP 100 for the 2027 Atlas Pro Team!

More than 1,300 teams applied, and somehow this crazy, flying Dutchman and I landed among the final 100. ❤️🐾

Dock diving started as something we did for FUN — a way to let our dogs be dogs, enjoy time together, and find a community we loved. I never imagined where it would take us. So seeing Brazen of Nemesis recognized among so many talented dogs and handlers is pretty darn special.

Of course, Top 100 isn’t the finish line. There are still more cuts to come...

🤞 So everybody cross your fingers, paws, toes and whatever else you've got — hopefully Team Brazen makes the NEXT CUT!

No matter what happens from here, I'm incredibly proud of this dog and everything we've gotten to experience together.

LET'S GO, BRAZEN! 🔥🐕💦

Few dogs are more expressive about their opinions of their owner's throws than a Dutch.

2026 Facility Championship Standings to Date

Facility Champion & Reserve Champion Rules

Eligibility
A dog must meet both eligibility requirements to be considered:
Compete in at least 3 splashes at each of 4 DARK K9 events during the 2026 season.

Place in at least one Facility Final during the 2026 season.
Air Retrieve: The dog's highest score from each event is used. The final score is based on 4 events, with missed events counting as 0. If a dog competes in more than 4 events, only the 4 best event scores are used.

Hydro Dash: The dog's fastest time from each event is used. Because Hydro Dash is timed, missed events are shown as events still required instead of being averaged as 0 seconds. If a dog competes in more than 4 events, only the 4 fastest event times are used.

Distance: A dog's top 3 scores from each event are averaged to create that event score. The season score is based on 4 event scores, with missed events counting as 0. Eligible dogs will also compete in the October 10, 2026 final jump-off; that jump-off score will be averaged with the 4 event scores to determine the final Distance championship score.
