Dog Lure Course - Dogloversdays lure course is a track built for the family dog to run, jump over bars, have a ball and exercise at the same time. The dog owner will be thrilled to watch their dog be the star of the show.

My Dog Can Do That - This new interactive dog area will feature demos of many different disciplines and give your dog an opportunity to try!

Big Air Wave - The Long Jump for Dogs and the most popular of the three disciplines. The dog has up to 40’ of dock to build up speed and jump as far as they can. Distance is measured where the tail meets the body.

Extreme Vertical Wave - The High Jump for Dogs. The dog is allowed 20’ of the dock to run and jump for the bumper, which is hung 8’ away from the dock at a height starting at 5’.

Speed Retrieve Wave - The Sprint for Dogs. They run 20’ down the dock, jump big, and swim as fast as they can to grab the duck while being timed.
