Welcome to Bernhardt’s Journey: An Experience in American Dock Dog Diving! This project was created by the combined passion of Alex Gerding and his dog Bernhardt; the eagerness to learn and awareness that study never ends; and the adventures, experiences, impacts, and challenges along the way. The journey reflects a deep desire for not only improving the sport of diving dogs or dock dog diving, but also providing useful information for others to find joy, educational material, philosophical incentives, and simply entertaining content surrounding the fascinating sport. Our mission is to provide tutorial and educational material for the dog sports enthusiast.
