Summer is peak dock diving season, but the heat and humidity is no joke! Keeping your dog in peak shape takes smart conditioning and safe training habits.

Here’s how to stay dock-ready all summer long:

🐾 Water Conditioning
Swap heavy land running for swimming sessions to build cardio and muscle without overheating as easily. But don’t let the water fool you, dogs can overheat in the water as well. Make sure they’re coming out regularly so you can evaluate their breathing.

🌅 Beat the Sun
Train early in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are cooler. Short sessions midday should help them better acclimate to the heat and humidity in case you do end up competing in it.

💧 Hydration + Shade
Always have plenty of fresh water, shade, cooling fans or mats, and rest breaks during training and competing.

🐕 Watch for Signs of Overheating
Excessive panting, slowing down, brick red gums, or lack of focus can mean it’s time for a break.

Train smart. Stay cool. Have fun. See you at the dock!

We’re thrilled to add Swamp Dogs K9 Academy in Walbridge, OH to the UDD family! They’re joining as Ohio’s 3rd facility, which means more places for y’all midwesterners to play!

Swamp Dogs isn’t new to dock diving, but they have a brand new rebuilt facility with a 48’ pool, and are ready to welcome competitors for events.

Make sure to follow them to see when events will happen, as well as the rest of the fun stuff they have going on!

It’s a big news kind of day! We’d like to also congratulate Brandy & John Thrash with Remie for setting the UDD Micro Dog Hang Time record of 14.5’ at Dog Gone Fun Agility, LLC on 6/20/25!

Unfortunately this record was stuck in purgatory… the video was out there but did not make its way to UDD. Almost a year later, all criteria for a record to be official was received, reviewed, and APPROVED!

We’re happy to congratulate Remie and family, and officially welcome you to our record boards!
