Disc Dogs - A Fun & Exciting Sport for Energetic Dogs!

The sport of disc dogs has been popular as an informal event since the Frisbee first hit the marketplace. The explosion of the Frisbee in the 1970s naturally extended to playing disc with our canine companions. Even now, nearly 40 years later, you are likely to see a disc dog team (dog and handler) playing in the park on a sunny day...no matter where you are!

Disc dogs is a fun and exciting sport that keeps both dog and handler active. From the sport’s sensational start in 1974 (when Alex Stein and his dog Ashley Whippet jumped the fence during a MLB game to show off their skills), disc dogs has grown steadily more popular. Today, there are hundreds of Disc Dog organizations that host competitions throughout North America and beyond.

The sport of disc dogs involves the handler and dog playing catch with a frisbee-like flying disc. The competitions include both simple toss-and-fetch events and more creative freestyle events, where dog and handler teams perform original disc routines, often set to music. Disc dogs is a very accessible sport - all you need is open space, a good quality flying disc, and the energy to work with your dog.

Disc dogs can be of any breed or mixed breed, any size, and any shape, which makes disc dogs a great performance sport option for just about anyone (and any dog)! Just ask any of the more than one million disc dog athletes - they will tell you it’s the most fun you can have with your dog!
