What is Rally Obedience

Rally Obedience can be described as obedience exercises performed in a sequence format, with the emphasis on an upbeat relationship between handler and dog. It is made up of a compilation of many of the traditional obedience exercises, including heeling, sit, down, stand, and stay.  Rally is a terrific sport to use to build a working relationship between dog and handler that will serve as a foundation for everyday life skills, other human-dog team sports such as agility and any type of dog assisted therapy programs.

Benefits:

Loose lead attentive walking assists with general cooperation with your dog in your everyday activities which will allow your dog to participate in more aspects of your daily life

Builds connection between dog and handler that is the basis for agility training.

Teaches your dog to a level of self-control necessary to participate in dog therapy and visitation programs.
