dockdogs- state fair

We went to the  Indiana State Fair this weekend and had a blast as usual. It is a family tradition.
So much to see and do and eat.

  • Ducks, Goats, Cows, 4H Exhibits, Scavenger Hunts, Gardens, Soybeans, Corn hole, Giant Pumpkins, Tractors, Train
  • Dairy barn milk shakes, Honey Sticks, Corndogs, SweetTea, Ribeye Steaks, Roasted Corn on the Cob (my fav)

We even saw a pig farm via Virtual Reality Glasses which was very interesting.
The highlight this year though were the Dock Dogs.
Dogs competing to see who can jump the furthest over a pool of water to get their toy.
This is a very short video of the first dog competing. A whippet was the winner jumping almost 30 feet!
