Let's make a splash!
01.
Private Lesson
Our Intro to Aquatics lessons are designed for dogs who are new to the water or need a little extra help getting started. Whether your dog is hesitant, curious, or has never taken a swim before, this session focuses on creating a calm, positive first experience.
We take a gentle, dog-led approach—no pressure, no rushing. Using encouragement, proper support, and confidence-building techniques, we help your dog learn that water can be fun, safe, and rewarding. Every dog moves at their own pace, and we celebrate every small win along the way.
This is the perfect starting point for dogs who may eventually move into dock diving—or simply for those who will benefit from the physical and mental enrichment that swimming provides.
​
Focus: comfort, confidence, positive exposure, trust, FUN!

Dock Diving
Private Lesson
Our Dock Diving Private Lessons are tailored, one-on-one lessons designed to help your dog develop the skills, confidence, and drive needed to succeed off the dock. Whether you're just getting started in dock diving or looking to refine technique, this personalized experience allows us to focus entirely on your dog’s needs and your goals as a team.
We work on everything from approach and takeoff to confidence, form, and motivation. Each lesson is customized—some dogs need help building excitement, while others are ready to fine-tune their performance or work toward competition goals.
With focused coaching and a supportive environment, you and your dog will gain the tools to progress safely, effectively, and with confidence.
​
AR/HD is available during these lessons. Please let us know ahead of time in the notes section that that is what you would like to work on!
​
Focus: drive, form, confidence, skill development, FUN!

Private Pool Rental
Open Dock Time gives you private access to the pool and dock—your space, your pace, your time. This is perfect for dogs who already have some experience and simply need time to practice, play, and enjoy the water without the structure of a formal lesson.
Whether you're reinforcing skills, burning off energy, or just letting your dog do what they love, this is a relaxed, low-pressure environment where you can focus on fun and repetition.
​
*You must complete a private lesson with our trainer to ensure you know how to navigate the pool and dock safely*
​
Focus: practice, repetition, exercise, FUN!

Group Sessions
Our goal with The Dog Dock has always been to build a fun, supportive community where dogs of all abilities - and their humans - can come swim, jump, splash, gain confidence, learn from one another, and make new friends. Whether you're training for NADD competitions or your dog just loves the water, everyone is welcome at Splash Socials!
​
A member of The Dog Dock will host each Splash Social to keep things running smoothly. While these are not formal lessons and instruction will be minimal, we're always happy to answer questions, offer encouragement, and lend a hand when needed.
​
​Open to dogs of all ages, breeds, and experience levels.
​
Focus: try it, practice, community, FUN!
