Fetch It – Qualifying Competition Rules

1. Promoters and Sponsor will provide best efforts to allow an open dock prior to the start for warm-up and dock acclimation.
2. Practice for all entrants is random order: 1 jump per turn on the dock, then rotate back in line.
3. If a practice session occurs, every dog gets at least 1 practice jump who wants it.
4. Dock/stage closes five minutes before qualifying starts.
5. For the qualifying, the first jump distance is 20’, increasing by 1’ increments.
6. Competitors can choose to pass and/or enter at any distance past 20’. Once a competitor jumps at that distance, they may not decrease the chosen distance.
7. Each competitor gets 3 misses in total. After the third jump attempt is missed the competitor is out.
8. Competitors must complete their jump attempts within 60 seconds of entering the stage and proceed directly to their second jump if they don’t complete the first.
9. Dogs must either grab the bumper or otherwise dislodge the bumper from its suspended position in order for it to be a successful completion of that respective distance.
10. If a competitor successfully completes a distance, they leave the stage & pool and return back in line to await the next distance.
11. Minimally, the top 1 jumper makes it in, and proceeds directly to competitor sign up, lunch, meeting and practice.
