    Well done Vader - [​IMG] - you really are getting on fantastically well!

    [Sorry Phil - I have no idea what dock diving is, but 12'6" sounds very impressive for a young pup.]

    the distance is from the end of the dock to where the tail hits the water
    Diving dogs is a canine sport in which dogs are enticed to run the length of a dock and leap as far out into the water as possible to compete for height or distance. They’re motivated to fly with a prized toy, which is thrown just out of reach in order to help them keep their momentum and get the best launch angle possible.

    Thank you for the explanation - 'diving' confused me a bit - 'leaping' would possibly have made sense to me, but whatever it is called it is certainly a goodly distance for Vader at such a young age.
