There is now a dock and pool in the Tampa Area !!

Anyone interested send me a PM and I can fill you in on the details. We will be going up this weekend and will post some pictures then. It's an awesome 40' dock and 40' pool setup and we are in the process of getting a vertical rig installed this week.

Love the setup. Great job! I think there's gonna be some big jumping dogs coming out of Florida.

This looks like an awesome setup. Is there any way we can start a club here?
How would something like that work, could we rent the pool for a couple hours on a once or twice a month basis? It would be too expensive if only a couple people show up. Is there any interest from the classes that have taken place in doing this?
Does anyone know how other clubs (that don't have access to private pools) do it?

Yes....we can set up a club here in Tampa and the pool is available for hourly rental. Prices are resonable and if fewer dogs show up, then we just pay for less time.

We had 26 dogs today !!

There is a lot of interest in having a club that meets or two times a month to jump.

We just went up to the new splash pool in Lutz at Courteous Canine. It was awesome. We took part in the class they offer on Saturdays. There were probably 10 dogs signed up.
Some were eager jumpers, most were new, some were not so sure about getting their feet wet, and some were just there to swim, and nuts to the jumping in part! It was lots of fun and a barrel of laughs.

The pool is available to rent out by the hour. Anyone interested in meeting there for joint dock time, please count us in. We travel a lot, but when we're home, we're willing to share the cost with whomever wants to jump with us.

Many thanks to MollyBGoode for advice on jumping. I'm hoping I can get Lucy to jump a little further. She's consistently hits around 15', but DH is pretty sure she did about 17 one jump there!

The Courteous Canine facility is wonderful, a couple of us Chesapeake folks from Central to South (Miami) FL rented it out for three hours at the beginning of September. The dogs had a blast and the water was gorgeous, I was tempted to join them! We definatly intend on using the facility again.

Two of us happen to be amateur photographers :wink:

My girl enjoying the facility:

Glad you all liked the facility !!

If anyone is interested in getting a group together drop me a note. We have a few people renting dock time on a regular basis...but I think it would be fun to get a big group together and jump.

Lucy was a lot of fun...she just needs a little more dock time. Lots of drive in that pup. Hope to see the Chessie invasion again also
