Rocky Mountain DockDogs February 2017

"Get More Altitude!"

RMDD News & Updates                              April 2017

SOOOO much fun stuff starting to happen with Rocky Mountain Dockdogs and Dockdogs in our region!  Not only do we have our season opener event - ThorntonFest - only a few short weeks away, but we also have TWO Wildcard  World Championship Qualifiers in our state AND the
Sanctioned Facilities Dog House League 
events (read on for more info). Thanks to all of our members, sponsors, competitors and fans for supporting us for our 9th season of dogs, water and fun! 

Please watch for an event Volunteer Sign-Up email coming soon. With the exception of one judge and one admin person, our events are completely run by volunteers! So without your help - we can't make them happen. This is a great opportunity to learn more about the sport as well as see what goes on "behind the scenes" of a competition. From the pool set-up and tear-down to wrangling waves and scorekeeping - there is something for everyone! 

See you on the dock!

Sanctioned Facility Dog House League


A new Road to World's Opportunity!
The Dog House League is a series of evening competitions at our local sanctioned facility - Jasper's Splash Zone in Colorado Springs. 

Across the country - the DogHouse League, with its name derived from the infamous term "DogTown" where all the teams usually gather during regular competitions, will run four (4) league nights during an eight (8) week period and is scored as a Wildcard event where the top team within each division of each discipline (Big Air; Speed Retrieve; Extreme Vertical & Iron Dog), based on rankings, are eligible for a 2017 DockDogs® World Championship invite, the remaining top teams in each division/discipline will be placed into a lottery with one additional randomly selected invite being awarded the second invite from those teams. Weeks will alternate with a minimum of one (1) Big Air and either Extreme Vertical or Speed Retrieve wave being included.  Competitors/Teams must attend three (3) of the four (4) to be eligible for a 2017 DockDogs® World Championship invite.


Our local League nights will be at  Jasper's Splash Zone in Colorado Springs, CO - Wed., May 24, May 31, June 21, June 28, 2017.  You must first sign up to be a Dog House League member before you can register for the competition waves.
