Hi, I think I already asked before, but can't seem to find the post, or maybe I didnt ask? LOL But is there any tripawds doing dockdiving? If not, do you think it could be a safe sport to do?

That's some awesome research Sally, good job!
Dock diving is one of those dog sports where yes, Tripawds can probably do it. But whether or not they are in good enough shape to remain injury free is another matter. I'm no rehab vet, but I'm guessing that since even fit Tripawds don't usually have full extension of their legs when they walk normally, this may create issues when trying to do the full extension that dock diving requires.
I would want to talk to a certified rehab vet and have a full exam done on my Tripawd before trying this sport.
