Emily took the two redheads in Missouri Dock Diving this weekend! Here’s what she had to say…..
⸻
“First dock diving session of the season = a huge success! 🐾💦
Simon tried Air Retrieve (AR) for the very first time and missed at 14’, which was completely my fault for starting him too low. 😩 Even so, for his first-ever AR attempt, snagging some clean 13’ catches isn’t too shabby! ❤️
Then he went on to absolutely smash his personal best in distance jumping — not once, but TWICE — finishing with a whopping 23’6”! (Last year’s best was 22’3” 🙌)
But Simon wasn’t the only superstar…
Miss Roux came out hot with an 18’3” jump, followed by an 18’6” and her first-ever dock title! (Her previous best was 15’6” — talk about progress!!)
For reference, the average Heeler in NADD hovers around 15–16’, so both of these pups went above and beyond with very little dock training so far this year. ❤️❤️❤️
We almost didn’t go, and I’m beyond grateful that we did. So proud of my dingos!
Huge thanks as always to the crew at Dog Sports at Kim’s - DSK Dogs for everything they do!”
