Apply Now For World Championship Boatyard Dog® Trials
Published on June 24, 2019The 17th Annual World Championship Boatyard Dog® Trials will be held as part of the Maine Boat & Home Show on August 11, at 10:30 a.m., at the waterfront in Rockland, Maine.
Preference will be given to dogs that work in a boatyard, crew on a boat, or direct operations of any kind on the waterfront (or think that they do), any well-behaved dog is eligible to apply. Extra points are given for originality and humor.
Dogs (and their handlers) who are chosen for the quirky competition might be asked to navigate an obstacle course on a tippy dock, clamber in and out of a dinghy, or fetch objects from the water. Either dog or owner must end the segment completely soaked.
To apply email a letter of interest, a high-resolution photograph, and daytime contact information to byd@maineboats.com. Extra points will be given for humor; this is NOT a serious competition.
Submissions are due by July 1, 2019, send to byd@maineboats.com.
Finalists will be notified by July 8. For more information and photos visit https://maineboats.com/boatshow/visitors/boatyard-dog.
