Hey, dock diving friends! Check it out!

UKC Dock Jumping is coming to WISCONSIN!! Woot Woot!

Layla & Journey are gonna be there... Will you??

🎃 HOWL-OWEEN UKC DOCK JUMPING FUN MATCH! 🐾
📍 Three Hounds Training Ground
📅 October 31, 2025

Entry form: https://splashpunks.aidaform.com/ukc-dock-jumping-entry

Ready to make a splash this Halloween? Come join us for our first OFFICIAL UKC Dock Jumping Fun Match and help us make UKC Dock Jumping a reality in Wisconsin with a night of flying dogs, good food, and spooky-season vibes! This is a non-licensed, just-for-fun event (no pressure or points… just pure, tail-waggin’ FUN).

Let’s show UKC how Wisconsin rolls — big air, bigger grins, and dogs that believe they can fly. 🦸‍♀️💦

💦 Fetch It! (Air Retrieve) — kicks off at 5:30pm
💦 Air (Distance Jumping) — starts at 6:30pm

🎟️ Pre-Entry: $7.50 per splash
⏰ Closes October 28 (day-of entries welcome… $10 per splash 👻)

👉 No UKC registration required!
If your pup can jump off the dock on their own and you love to laugh, you can play!

🍔 Prizes and treats for both humans and hounds — plus, every dog who participates earns a FREE SPLASH for our first official UKC-licensed event (planned for February 2026, pending UKC approval).

🦴 Grab your spot, grab your costume (if you want), and let’s make a splash to remember! (And honestly? where can you have an entire night of dock diving fun with your pup for $30 or less??)

There is something deeply poetic about watching a dog do exactly what it was born to do. No hesitation, no second-guessing—just pure instinct woven into every muscle, every movement. To witness this is to see purpose in its purest form. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the most beautiful thing we can do is exactly what we were meant for. 🐾❤️

Well, it’s a wrap… and it’s official!

Journey took FIRST in Open Master division Distance Jump in her debut on the NADD Nationals scene!

Layla snagged SIXTH in Veteran Junior division Air Retrieve and FOURTH in Topaz H.AR.D Charger in her retirement trip to Nationals!

So many happy tears and good memories this week… thank you to everyone who was so supportive, who cheered for us and cried those happy tears right along with us… wasn’t even sure I wanted to do this trip this year, but BOY AM I GLAD WE DID!!!!

It’s not about the wins or the ribbons…. This is about 2 little dogs who wanted nothing more than to play the game with their humans, gave it their all and left it all on the dock… now it’s time for that long ride home and a well deserved break for Journey & Layla!

“I might not be as flashy as Jumping J but mom says I am her very best girl and I don’t have to be flashy… I have earned my stripes and got to be a ‘Veteran Finalist’ twice here in Springfield (I may have had a senior moment in one of the finals this morning but mom said that was OK)!”

“Having a great time doing splashy dog things in someplace called ‘Springfield’ this week… Not sure what ‘Open Master Finalist’ means but for some reason mom is crying and feeding me cookies and telling me I have done so many good things, so I’m gonna take it that I have been a very, very good girl!”

It's a wrap & it's OFFICIAL! Team Freak-N-Powderface are headed to Springfield, MO for North America Diving Dogs Nationals in October!

We took a "little" road trip to the Canadian Prairie Regionals at the Dog Dock on the Bay in St. Andrews, Manitoba. We met so many wonderful people and had an amazing time! It was a little breezy the day we jumped, but Journey & Layla jumped their hearts out and came home with invites and we couldn't be more proud!!

Layla:
2nd Place Veteran Senior Division Distance
1st Place Veteran Junior Division Hydro Dash
1st Place Veteran Junior Division Air Retrieve

Journey:
2nd Place Open Master Division Distance
and... a new title in Air Retrieve!

Thank you to the crew at the dock who did everything they could to make the event FUN! We can't wait to go back!

Thank you to Becky Norlander and Three Hounds Training Ground - without you, we would not be able to consistently achieve the way we have throughout the years! You were there at the beginning of my dock diving career and have always been my safe haven for training, keeping my goals realistic and my dogs best interests at heart!

Nationals here we come!!! The countdown is on!
