We’re gearing up for weekend three of Dogtoberfest, and we’re thrilled to have Disc Dogs in Southern California back for two more days of incredible performances! Catch these amazing pups in action on October 19 and 20 at 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. — it’s a show you won’t want to miss!
Since 1997, Disc Dogs in Southern California has been thrilling audiences with high-flying, frisbee-catching pups, and this year’s Dogtoberfest is no exception. Cheryl Kamikubo, the Demonstration Show Coordinator, gave us a peek into the exciting world of Disc Dogs, their performances and the love for dogs that keeps the group soaring. “We provide frisbee dog demonstrations for private events, city festivals and charity events,” Cheryl shared. “We mostly perform at dog-themed events, like the fantastic Dogtoberfest!”
“We’re the premiere frisbee dog club in California,” Cheryl explained. The club was formed by “a group of dog-loving enthusiasts whose dogs were crazy about playing frisbee.” Since then, many of their members have become World Champions, and you may have seen them on TV, in commercials, or performing at major sporting events like the MLB All-Star Game and UCLA halftime shows.
But at the heart of the group is the love for dogs and a passion for keeping them happy and healthy. Their main goal “is to have fun with their dogs while promoting the sport of canine frisbee as a great way to keep family pets happy and healthy,” Cheryl said. Disc Dogs also hosts frisbee dog training clinics and competitions throughout the year, offering a great chance for both seasoned pros and newcomers to get involved.
“Our show will consist of segments showing you the step-by-step basics on how to train your dog to be a frisbee dog, a fun disc dog race and many ‘freestyle’ routines performed to music where you can see the dogs do spins in the air and soar off their handler’s backs all while catching the disc!” Cheryl enthused. “It’s going to be a doggone good time, so don’t miss it!”
So whether you’re a long-time frisbee dog fan or a curious newcomer, be sure to check out Disc Dogs in Southern California at Dogtoberfest this weekend to see these incredible pups in action!
