Disc dog is the more generic name for what is commonly called Frisbee dog. In disc dog competitions,
dogs and their
human disc throwers compete in events such as distance catching and somewhat choreographed freestyle catching. The sport celebrates the bond between handler and dog, by allowing them to work together. The term "disc" is preferred because "
Frisbee" is a
trademark (held by
Wham-O) for a brand of flying disc.
