Who we are
Nestled in the heart of Central Oregon, The Flight Deck was born from a happy accident.
Our Golden Retriever had always loved the water - any chance to swim, he'd take it. So when we discovered dock diving, it seemed like the perfect outlet for his passion. What we didn't expect was how transformative it would be. He needed physical therapy to strengthen his hind end and engage his core - and dock diving solved it all without us even trying. The sport naturally built the strength and body awareness he needed, all while doing what he loved most.
Watching that transformation, and seeing the pure joy it brought him, we knew we had to share this incredible sport with others. That's how The Flight Deck came to be - a place where dogs and their handlers can train, play, and take flight year-round.
As an official North America Diving Dogs (NADD) facility, we're proud to partner with an organization recognized by the American Kennel Club for their commitment to safety, inclusivity, and excellence in the sport. Our climate-controlled indoor pool and dock are designed for every level of experience - from first-time swimmers to national competitors. Our mission is to make dock diving accessible, safe, and fun for all breeds and skill levels.
Beyond events, we provide private swim sessions, confidence-building assisted swims, and tailored dock diving lessons to help each dog reach their full potential. Every detail - from the pool's design to the atmosphere inside the facility - was crafted with comfort, community, and canine wellbeing in mind.
Located on the scenic grounds of Eight Peaks Estate, The Flight Deck is more than a facility - it's a destination for those who believe in the joy of the jump, the thrill of the splash, and the unshakable bond between dog and handler.
