I would LOVE to do dock diving... Star has the lab webbed feet... but she still is not too happy about water. Maybe someday.

Flyball is high impact and if dogs aren't trained and conditioned properly they can be injured. They can get injured in any sport but flyball is high speed and high impact so I would imagine there is the potential for higher risk of injury. For me, I prefer competing in flyball. It can be an adrenaline rush and it is fun as a team sport. It is like drag racing your labby lol.
