DockDogs® Worldwide announced today the confirmation for the brand new location of their highly anticipated 2017 World championships event. The Knoxville Convention Center will host the 2017 DockDogs® World Championships in Knoxville, Tennessee.
This year’s World competition event and Golden Paw Awards ceremonies will land in new venues including the Knoxville Convention Center and the Holiday Inn at World’s Fair Park. Knoxville's Visitor and Convention Bureau, Visit Knoxville, has teamed up with DockDogs to create this memorable event.
“The DockDogs championships are produced by a team of event specialists and dog enthusiasts,” Chad Culver, Senior Director of Visit Knoxville Sports Commission said. “We have had an amazing experience working with DockDogs® Worldwide to bring this event to Knoxville. Who wouldn’t like working with people that love dogs! This event will be just as fun for the spectators as it is for the dogs. Plus, with a local club like Smokey Mountain DockDogs, more people will be able to see if their pups have what it takes.”
DockDogs® World Championships will feature amazing national and local sponsorship platforms in local and worldwide markets. Sponsors’ brands will be featured in media, during the Consumer Fair at the onsite booths with information, products, and featured services available to attendees.
“We are excited to be a sponsor of DockDogs again this year at the World Championships in Knoxville. We are looking forward to seeing all the teams that have worked so hard for the past year to be invited to this exciting competition. It is wonderful to have the opportunity to not only share the benefits of GlycoFlex but to see the benefits in action from the many winning teams that use GlycoFlex supplements to keep their dogs jumping higher and further.” - Derek J. Archambault, Director of Marketing for VetriScience, makers of GlycoFlex.
DockDogs® long time sponsor Blue Buffalo’s Director of Sales, Gregory Mandel shared, “It is a privilege to work closely with the DockDogs® organization which includes management, staff, and the incredible participants of this progressive culture that promotes skill, competitiveness, fun and a unique platform of community.”
