Does your dog like the water? Bring your pooch (on a leash, of course) to GO FEST for the Subaru Ultimate Air Dogs Premier Dock Jumping contest (presented by First Team Subaru and Walkabout Outfitter).
Leading the charge for Subaru Ultimate Air Dogs is UAD president and main announcer, Milt Wilcox, former pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. Milt is famous for winning Game 3 of the 1984 World Series. His charismatic emceeing is as entertaining as watching the high flying dogs.
In dock jumping, dogs sit on the dock with handlers and run and leap into the water to catch a toy. The sport is open to dogs of any size (from Yorkie to Great Dane) and breed.
And this is an event you and your dog can participate in at Go Fest on Oct. 19-21 at Rivers Edge. Just bring your dog and register at the booth, which will be open all weekend.
