If you dig a little deeper you can find the bird dog competitions/field trials. Those dogs are serious about their craft. Its so cool to watch them respond to their handlers whistles and commands, they look just like well trained soldiers.
I think they sued to show them on ESPN2, maybe a diff channel, but I remember watching them ages ago on tv. They were a lot of super impressive pooches.
I am retiring in 2 months. Lost my dog in October...,.a month before his 17th birthday. Watching this numerous times., I have almost decided to get a whippet an train for this event. Me re thoughts to come in February,. When I am officially retired. Also learned and worked in the field of taking care of dog breeding and training with Airedales. Great experience...but I believe my techniques are comforting.
I saw this live by accident once as a show, and it was the best surprise ever! So much fun, and the dogs were having a blast. The one we saw was all Pitbulls.
I haven't seen this in years. It used to be all water dogs. I have never seen whippets do this. I am surprised their nose doesn't go under the water. Funny.
Spitfire (Michael Jordan of dog diving) was the first whippet to really take off the breed into dog diving. Sight hounds were never considered water dogs as it's not common for them to like the water. Sounders was his friend and those 2 were always trying to out do the others record. Incognito and Spitfire had the same owner/handler. Now everytime I watch there's a whippet/greyhound mix.
Really surprised to see Whippets doing this now, it use to be the water dogs (Labs, etc.) and I guess they still do at the lower levels. Just something fun to do with your dog, they seem to love it.
im no genius but ... in comparison in my mind i think a whippet can get to top speed much quicker. like a 50yd sprinter vs a 200M sprinter, a whippet is quicker start opposed to overall speed.
Greyhounds are not used because they are not a water breed. They hate swimming, so they probably won't jump in water. A whippet is a water breed and love the water. That is why there are no greyhounds.
I highly recommend everyone watch videos from “k-none” or “I hate dogs” and you’ll realize, if you haven’t already, what a plague dogs are in our society. just imagine how amazing daily life would be without them. Be well all

Takes place in Gray Summit, Missouri. About forty minutes west of St. Louis.
I just love the slo-mo shots 😆, just great. Dogs are the best.
The replays are hilarious.

You can train many different dogs to dive - do the research and pick the best breed for you. Then, of course, the dog in that breed will choose you ;)
This is more exciting than watching cricket.🤣🤣🤣

9:57 I’m like why is he holding this dog like a rifle 😂😂

That was fun to watch, but the poor dogs getting their nuts smack, ooch! LOL
The video of Sounders setting the record back in 2021 is hilarious. He has a covid mask on.
The speed and agility competitions are incredible, at these events. Zigzagging, slaloms, ramps, seesaws, tunnels… It’s really fun to watch.
WHERE CAN I GAMBLE ON THIS
The dogs seems like they are having a great time.

This should always be on in the pub. I'd love to bet on this
I had an edible and now I'm sitting here with the same IQ as the dog. I've learned what a Whippet was and I like the color of the splashing water. 👌
This was fun lol
Y’all definitely put me onto this stuff. What did I just watch 😂🍻
Somebody needs to do a compilation of the replays with absoutley zero context to the video 🤣🤣

The UK doesn't have dog divivg competitions???
Greyhounds don't have the acceleration needed in such a short distance
The ‘throwers” don’t seem to be throwing it far enough
This is my third time watching.....Epic!
Daz first time hearing of whippet
4th time watching. You have to do a re-do with Gayner.😁
This was cool. Have y'all seen Flyball ?

The commentating is killing me 😂
Come on guys - where’s the reaction to the #1 Oregon Ducks and Penn State?!😛

Same can be said about man
@ i was saying human life would be better without dogs. Man without man seams counter productive
@@philmccracken179 Nature and animals would be better without us
@@philmccracken179 i guess it depends on the character of the man doesnt it
