Dock Jumping!

Placing service dogs with Veterans that incorporate these dogs into other activities is a part of the program RFI is very proud of.  This video clip includes one of our very own RFI veterans and his dog Bender.  They have been dock jumping together now for over a year.  Bender has moved up in the rankings to a National Master Title!  His longest jump to date is 22' 11" and continues to break his personal records each trip out.  Chad has invited other veteran and dog teams to the events, and continues to leave that invite open.  Matt Miller and Nala, and Trent Dirks and Tracer both participated in their first competition recently in the Cedar Rapids Freedom Festival.  The next event will be held at the Scheels Expo in Coralville, IA on August 19th and 20th.
