The Battle Continues……That’s right folks, Minnesota and Wisconsin’s Dock Dogs clubs will go paw-to paw again this year at the Minnesota Hastings Rivertown Days Celebration on the scenic banks of the great Mississippi River in Hastings Minnesota July 18 through the 20th.

This year shall prove who the True Champions of the upper Midwest are. The first Battle of the Border Challenge held in Eau Claire, Wisconsin certainly was a nail bitter. Teams from all the Big Air Divisions went paw-to-paw and the results - a virtual “tie.” That brought us down to an exciting Extreme Vertical competition. Well, Minnesota’s own Rocky, Sophie, and Savannah Jane were NO match for the likes of  Gauge, Reggie or Sarge, that’s clear!!  In the end, the Ultimate winner of the Battle of the Border Challenge for 2007 – Those High Flying Dogs of Wisconsin’s Dock Dogs Club!

Next up, the “2007 DockDogs 1st Annual National’s Club Challenge” held in Roger’s Minnesota. While a little voice kept whispering in my ear all weekend, “I know who is in the lead!!!” We again came down to that crazy Extreme Vertical Competition again. Those Big Flying Dogs from Wisconsin smoked the folks and their dogs from Minnesota once again.

Well the challenge is back, and we have the home pool advantage here in Minnesota:

Can Minnesota step up to the challenge?

Could Speed Retrieve be Minnesota’s answer to having the ability to stop those Big Strong Dogs to our East?


Come on down to Hastings Rivertown Days July 18th through the 20th and find out who will be this year’s “Big Winner” of the 2008 Minnesota vs. Wisconsin DockDogs Battle of the Border Challenge.


Psst: Remember to compete in the Battle you must be a member of the state’s club you reside in PRIOR to the event!!!!! Get in contact with your home Club’s President or Membership Officer to join and bring your dog to Hastings. Minnesota Dogs – Help we need you!!!!!!
