Dog Diving
Watching the Purina incredible dog challenge on ESPN today and was wondering how they were saying those dogs were jumping so far? I did some checking and found out that Purina measures where the front paws hit the water while the Splash Dogs and Dock Dogs groups measures electronicly from where the base of the tail enters the water. That can be as much as 4 feet for some dogs? So, Prince Andy's jump of 15' 4" would have been 18-20 feet if measured Purina's way. Also found out that there are at least 3 groups that do dog diving, "Splash Dogs" here in the west, "Dock Dogs" in the eastern part of the county and Purina puts on it's own show for avertising in selected sites. Each has it's own rules. 2 comments from 2 users

We all hope to keep him busy. May be doing an exhibition in Las Vegas soon? It is being put togather as I write this by the "Splash Dogs" group. He will be there with older dogs to show what they can do. Pople don't unbderstand when I say that Andy knows when he in competiting. When he see's the dock he just goes crazy wanting to show off and jump. You will be hearing more about him.
