Athletic dogs from around the country will make their way to the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas to compete in the Purina Pro Plan Incredible Dog Challenge. This premier canine sporting event features dogs competing in a variety of “Olympic-style” events, including high-flying disc routines, head to-head weave pole racing, large and small dog agility courses, Jack Russell hurdle racing and the crowd favorite – dog diving – where dogs take a running leap off of a 40-foot dock into a 19,000-gallon pool of water.
Local dogs have the opportunity to qualify on Friday, March 1, for both the dog diving and freestyle flying disc competitions. To learn more about the event, please visit www.barknetwork.com
Owners can train their dogs to perform these incredible athletics themselves, using the new Purina® Pro Plan® P5® app. The app is part of the Purina® Pro Plan® SPORT product portfolio launch, which offers three formulas to fuel athletic dogs based on activity level.
