🚨 New Lap Dog Policy

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BhRmDHWRg/?mibextid=wwXIfr

🚨 NEW POLICY ALERT for Lap Dogs! 🐶📏

We’ve introduced a new Lap Dog Measurement Policy for all pups under 2 years old! 🐾✨

📌 Here’s what you need to know:

🐕‍🦺 All Lap Dogs must be measured at DockDogs® events to receive their official Height Card / Certificate.

📝 The Height Card will be issued after 3 staff-signed measurements are recorded:

After the dog turns 2 years old 🗓️ OR after 2 years of DockDogs® competition experience 🏆

✅ Once your pup has a completed Height Card, no more measurements are needed — they’re all set for future events! 🎉

📍 Until then (before age 2 or 2 years of competition in DockDogs® events), your Lap Dog may need to be measured at each event they attend. 🔁

🐾 Lap Dogs over 2 years old do NOT need to be measured once a height card has been acquired. 🙌

🐶 All Lap Dogs must be measured at the World Championship.

🐕Let’s keep things official and fair for all our furry athletes! 💙

It’s been a while since we’ve done a toy toss to honor those special dogs and dockdogs that have brought us all together and what started off as something fresh on our minds about a couple of dogs that have passed recently, it led to the fact that we don’t think we’ve done this in a while so we started compiling the list over the past few days and it grew. We apologize if we have missed your pup and please let us know if we have!

Thanks to Susan Strahan for making this little video for us and to share for those who couldn’t be here! You were missed, loved, and thought about.

Here is the preliminary bubble for BA Finals tomorrow! We have one more BA wave before the final bubble!

Village Green competitors who have never been…I made this up really quick to give you an idea for dogtown and the setup.

The black areas are blocked off for vendors and there won’t be access from the Kingston Pike entrance to the main parking lot normally.

But there is plenty of room in dogtown and some other spots near the bank or even in the parking lot to work from your car. Some have done that option in the main parking lot, but there will be people in the shopping center walking all around and I wouldn’t trust it myself unless it’s really close.

Let us know if you have any questions! We can’t wait for Dog Daze IV and big thanks to Shop Farragut and all of the sponsors for having back for the 9th year!

This story is just one of the reasons why we help BAARK!

The B.A.A.R.K. Foundation provides support to DockDogs® community members during times of hardship—helping cover unexpected medical emergencies, end-of-life care, and more. 💙

Today, we’re sharing Ron and Tanya Lauscher’s story and the powerful impact of community support:

“We recently lost our best friend Jaeger the Bomb to cancer. It was devastating. We were grieving and overwhelmed by medical bills. We’d supported B.A.A.R.K. for years—donating baskets, bidding in auctions, and helping however we could—never thinking we’d need help ourselves.

But after months of back-to-back emergencies—surgeries, vet visits, therapies—our savings were gone. When Jaeger was diagnosed with two types of cancer, we reached our breaking point. Tanya reached out to B.A.A.R.K., and they responded with a check to help cover the vet bills. That support allowed us to focus on saying goodbye, not stressing over finances.

We will be forever thankful. No one should have to choose between money and care in a time like that. Please support B.A.A.R.K.—even small donations can be life-changing.”
— Ron and Tanya Lauscher
