Dock Diving Title Tracker
Keep your dog's qualifying jumps, dock diving titles, and progress easier to follow from one event to the next.
Your dog launches off the dock, you get the distance, and hopefully everyone involved stays at least somewhat dry.
But once you start competing regularly, there is another number to keep up with: what that jump means for your dog's next title.
Happy Dog League Title Tracker gives your dock diving titles and qualifying progress a place to live alongside your dog's other sports, so you can see what has already been earned and what you're working toward next.
Whether your dog is working toward a first NADD dock diving title or continuing toward an Advanced or Excellent title, it helps to know exactly what has already counted and what is still left. A running title record makes that much easier, especially once qualifying jumps start adding up across multiple events.
Every qualifying jump adds up
Dock diving titles are built over time, and that means the individual qualifying jumps matter.
With NADD dock diving, dogs can work toward division titles and continue building progress toward Advanced and Excellent titles as more qualifying jumps are earned.
That is why it helps to track more than just the final title. If you know how many qualifying jumps your dog has already earned, it is much easier to see how close they are to the next milestone.
Instead of trying to remember which jumps counted or digging through old results later, you can keep that progress current as you go.
Track progress such as:
- Qualifying jumps from each dock diving event
- Current dock diving title goals
- Dock diving titles alongside your dog’s other sports
NADD title progress
How NADD Dock Diving Title Progress Adds Up
NADD dock diving titles build over time through qualifying jumps. Once your dog starts competing regularly, the question is not only whether a jump qualified, but how many qualifying jumps are now counting toward the next title.
For many NADD division titles, the first title is earned after the required qualifying jumps in that division. From there, the same progress continues toward higher milestones. An Advanced title is earned at 30 total qualifying jumps in the division, and an Excellent title is earned at 55 total qualifying jumps.
That is where tracking becomes especially useful. Your dog may already have the first title while quietly building toward Advanced or Excellent, and it is much easier to enjoy the competition when you do not have to reconstruct that total later.

NADD dock diving titles
Track NADD Dock Diving Titles
NADD dock diving includes multiple disciplines, including Distance Jump, Air Retrieve, and Hydro Dash, so your dog may have more than one title path in progress at the same time.
In Distance Jump, dogs can work through titles such as Dock Novice (DN), Dock Junior (DJ), Dock Senior (DS), Dock Master (DM), and Dock Elite (DE), with Advanced and Excellent levels available as qualifying jumps continue to build.
Happy Dog League Title Tracker helps keep each NADD title path separate, so you can see what your dog has already earned and what they are still working toward.
AKC dock diving titles
How AKC Dock Diving Titles Work
If you are searching for AKC dock diving titles, the titles are actually earned through North America Diving Dogs. AKC recognizes eligible NADD titles through its Title Recognition Program, which means qualifying NADD titles can also become part of your dog's AKC title record.
For tracking purposes, it helps to think of the dock diving progress as NADD progress first, while AKC recognition gives you another place where those accomplishments may appear officially.
Personal tracking, not official records
Use the tracker to stay organized between events, then verify official points, titles, awards, eligibility, and records directly with the appropriate organization.
More than one sport
Your Dog Probably Does More Than Dock Dive
Dock diving dogs have a habit of doing other things too.
Maybe your dog spends one weekend launching off a dock and the next running Fast CAT, agility, rally, scent work, or something completely different.
Instead of keeping a separate tracking system for every sport, your dog's dock diving titles can live alongside the rest of their accomplishments in the same profile.
That makes it easier to see the full picture of what your dog has earned without jumping between different apps, spreadsheets, and notes.
Why we added dock diving
Why We Added Dock Diving to the Tracker
One of the reasons we built Happy Dog League Title Tracker was that dog sport records have a way of ending up everywhere. A dog might do agility one weekend, Fast CAT the next, and dock diving somewhere in between, while every sport has its own titles and progress to remember.
We wanted each sport to keep its own title path without making you maintain a completely separate system for every activity. Dock diving can stay dock diving, while still being part of the same dog's bigger sport history.
Already have dock diving titles?
You do not have to start from the beginning.
If your dog already has dock diving titles, add the titles they have earned, then set up the title or progress you are working toward now.
From there, you can keep adding new qualifying jumps and title progress as your dog competes.
No need to rebuild every past event just to start tracking today.
FAQ
Dock Diving Title Tracker Questions
What is a dock diving title tracker?+
A dock diving title tracker helps you organize dock diving titles, qualifying jumps, title progress, and current goals for each dog in one place.
Can I track NADD dock diving titles?+
Yes. Happy Dog League Title Tracker can help organize supported NADD dock diving titles and progress by dog, discipline, division, and title path.

NADD title requirements depend on the title and discipline, but qualifying jumps build toward each title level.
