Normally I have someone holding her at the far end of the platform and I get her excited by squeaking the toy then on the count of three they release her and she comes running and dives right in, this time no one else other than me was allowed on the platform, so I had to make her sit and stay, then come as I tossed the toy in the water, both times she stopped at the end of the dock. My friend kept tossing the toy in the air with the big hand held net and after about 4 tosses she went into after the toy but she did not go as far since she did not have a running start. There were a bunch of people there from a dock dive club in Toronto, I was wondering if that is the one you belong to. Kazzy and her family were there to see Lola dive, and they took photos but in all the confusion I forgot to look at them. I am not sure I am going to enter her in the contests any more. It's such a hassle bringing all her stuff, then hanging around waiting our turn and so forth, and I get all worked up, LOL like I was the one diving. I wound up missing a good part of the pet expo because we spent so much time at the dock area. She can dive anytime she wants to at the house so that should be enough. We will be in NY soon and everyone of my relatives have an in ground pool so she will be swimming then
