Rally obedience (also known as Rally or Rally-O) is a dog sport based on traditional dog obedience, but with some special twists! In Rally O, dog and handler are encouraged to freely interact; the handler can offer verbal praise and encouragement throughout the course, with fun and fellowship a major component of the sport.
Unlike regular obedience, instead of waiting for the judge's orders, the competitors proceed around a course of designated stations with the dog in heel position. The course consists of 10 to 20 signs that instruct the team what to do. Rally O courses can be performed at a pace that's comfortable and fun for each team!
There are currently five sanctioning bodies for Rally-O in the United States: the American Kennel Club (AKC); the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT); and the newly formed Canine Work and Games (C-Wags)and Canines and Humans United (CHU). The United Kennel Club (UKC) added rally obedience to their program as of January 2009.
Rally O is accessible to just about any dog/handler team who have completed just one or two basic training classes; most who have graduated from Citizen Canine are more than ready to jump into our Rally O clinic and get started right away!
For beginners we'll show you all you need to know to get started and keep going; for more experienced dogs, we'll help you hone your skills so you can attain even higher levels of performance. And, like all our programs, you and your dog will have a great time doing it! This is a great way to improve and proof your skills, learn a few new ones and maybe earn a title or two!
If you're interested in advanced obedience skills, Rally O is right up your alley! Our Rally O clinic is a drop-in class, so come when you can and you won't be penalized when you don't show.
