What do you get when you mix five Labradors, a Chesapeake Bay Retriever, a German Shorthaired Pointer, and a 19,000 gallon pool? You get some of the best high flying canines in the country competing at the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge. The regional competition is being held at the Central Florida Fair this weekend.
An elite group of competitors are set to take to the dock on Saturday to determine who will advance on to the finals at Purina Farms, in St. Louis later this year. All of the dogs featured in this competition are easily jumping over 22’ feet [measured at the base of the tail] and have been the winners at previous competitions this year hosted by Ultimate Air Dogs.
This list of competitors include:
Rob Weiss & Midnight [BL]
Courtney Graham & Gauge [CL]
Joann Chronister & Rebel [YL]
Perry Ludwig & Lily [YL]
Patrick Moultrup & Duke [GSP]
Ron Parker & Dakota [CBR]
Alisa Wayland & Colby [YL]
Local dogs will also have a shot to compete in a last-chance qualifier on Friday. For a complete schedule of events click here.
