Dog Days Bar & Grill hosts the most unique sporting event and attraction of the summer.  The third annual Canine Cannonball June 12-14 promises some of the best high flying action and intrigue the Lake of the Ozarks will see in 2009.

The sport of competitive dog jumping drew thousands of people to “the Dog” for the 2008 Canine Cannonball, and Dock Dogs organizers expect the competition to pick up even more for what has quickly become a can’t miss lake tradition.

In Dock Dogs events like the Canine Cannonball, dogs and their owners compete in the big air event, where the winners in the professional ranks jump distances over 20’ before splashing down in a specially-designed soft-sided pool.  The world record holder is a greyhound mix named Country who soared 28’10” in 2005.
