Rally-Obedience
Rally-O is a fun, interactive sport which
means you are going around a "course"
which is made up of different exercises that
you and your dog do.
For instance, you could be asked to have
your dog sit, lie down, and sit again before
moving on to the next "station" which might
be an about turn. Anyone who has done
competitive obedience is usually familiar with
the doodling exercises we use in training -
basically rally builds on these and puts them
into a course. You are allowed to talk to your
dog throughout the course, and may even
use food in some organizations.
I first learned about Rally in December 2006
when I attended a CKC Rally seminar and I
was thoroughly enthused with this new game!
Since then I have even become a CKC Rally
judge which I love.
Bronte has since earned her CKC Rally
Novice and Rally Advanced and CARO Rally
Novice. Owen earned his CKC Rally Novice
title in August, his RA and RE and is working
on legs for his RAE. He also finished his
CARO Novice and Advanced titles in six
straight runs
Bowie has his CARO Novice and has started
CKC as well.
Can you tell we're kind of hooked?
