Can Your Dog Fly?
Reno, Nevada. Local dog lovers are invited to try one of the Country’s hottest new dog sports when Splash Dogs comes to Reno, Nevada for a high-flying, tail-wagging event during the summer of 2009.
Sponsored by Tamarack Junction Casino and the Nevada State Fair, and presented by volunteers from northern Nevada’s own dog diving club H3D (High Desert Dive Dogs).
Dogs fly high for fun and prizes during the two-day Summer Solstice Splash Dogs Fun Jump and Competition June 19 -21 at the Tamarack Junction Casino in south Reno. Competition jumps will be held throughout the weekend. On Sunday the event’s top dogs compete in Junior Handler, Open and Pro Finals.
Splash Dogs competitions are open to anyone with a canine partner who loves to run, jump, fetch and swim. Newcomers are invited to give dog-diving a try during practice sessions for $10 a day. Experienced H3D club members will be on hand to help beginners get started.
Splash Dog competitions are also great spectator events, featuring high flying dogs from throughout the West. Many of the dogs fly 20 to 25 FEET as the competition heats up.
H3D is a non-profit club dedicated to teaching and promoting the safe and fun methods of dog dock jumping. Members of H3D regularly compete in events in Nevada, California, Oregon and Washington. Club members practice most weekend mornings on the east side of the Sparks Marina. New members are always welcome.
