Jumping Dogs Invade Libertyville

Libertyville’s Dog Days of Summer held July 5-8th is again proud to be Host City for an exciting four day event featuring 150 professional DockDogs, competing in the “Big Air Dog Jumping-Road to the National Championship.”  In addition this year, there will be 15 dogs that will compete in a local competition for prizes and the title of “Libertyville’s Big Air Dog”.  Your dog can be one of those 15 local dogs that run down a 40’ dock and jump into a 27,000 gallon 20’ x 40’ pool.  The competition is simple and exciting, the dog with the longest leap off the dock...the BIG AIR DOG - WINS!

Bill Kaiser, owner of Pampered Pup’z and producer of Libertyville’s Dog Days of Summer explains, “ Last year so many Libertyville dogs wanted to try the “Big Air Jumping”, but didn’t know how, so this year we have added two Fun Jumping Sessions in order to give local a chance to practice and compete.”   The Fun Jumping Sessions will be held Thursday, July 5th from 2–6:00 PM.  Register early as we do fill up.  On-site registration begins at Noon.  Cost is $15 which includes a professional jumping instructor.

There is NO COST to enter, go to Pampered Pup’z website for 1 of 3 ways to win. The five dogs who receive the most amounts of votes, five dogs chosen from a drawing at our sponsors, and the top five dogs from the Fun Jumping Session, a total of fifteen dogs will win a chance to compete for the title of “Libertyville’s Big Air Dog”. Register your dog early, space is limited!  The Opening Ceremonies and the Local Jumping Competition is scheduled for Friday, July 6th at 6:00 PM.  Afterwards enjoy a night at MainStreet’s “First Friday” and then join us in Cook Park for music provided by Mickey Finn’s.
