Dock Diving Whippet ‘Flies’ Over 27 Feet of Water With Ease

Spitfire the Whippet laves to jump and he does it very, very well.

Watch as he leaps 27’6” across the water to snatch the toy suspended 2′ above the dock during an Air Retrieve practice for NADD – North America Diving Dogs.

He looks like he’s flying!

Spitfire currently holds the world record at 26’6” for NADD, meaning he improved his longest jump by an entire foot! Spitfire and his human are “hoping to smash that Air Retrieve record this weekend officially at the BDU event.”

Here’s an interview with Spitfire and his human talking about his success in dock diving.
