Grand Rapids, Michigan
Agility trials, dock diving, barn hunt and scent-work workshops — run in blocks, on the clock, on our own field. Check the heat sheet, then send your entry to the desk.
Trial schedule
Every discipline runs in its own blocks, with its own run order. Entries are taken per dog, per block, until the block fills.
Disciplines
Each discipline runs its own lane, its own blocks and its own run order. Same field, same lights, same call to the start line.
Numbered courses, contacts and weave poles, run against the clock. Handlers walk the course, the dog takes the start line, and the run is called like a meet — clean or not, the time stands.
Enter agility
The dog launches off the end of the dock over open water while the bank calls the jump. Distance, height and speed each take their turn, one dog at a time, on the clock.
Enter dock diving
Straw bales stacked into a course, aerated tubes worked into the gaps, and a dog going nose-first through the maze while the clock runs. Nose down, tail up, straight through the straw.
Enter barn hunt
Containers, interiors, exteriors and vehicles. Workshop blocks break the search down and build the pattern back up, hide by hide, with the dog doing the finding.
Enter scent work
Entry desk
Handler, dog, discipline, block. Send it in and the desk writes you into the run order for that trial.
Club nights
The rings open for members and their dogs. Run the equipment, work the contacts, and take as many passes as the night allows — no score, no clock, just the reps.
Young handlers get ring time with their own dog on the same courses the trials use. Course walks, start-line routines and a full run, run by run.
