Most commonly called by its nickname Rally-O.

Rally Obedience is a lot of fun and teaches your dog focus and attention.  Rally-O is a great way to get young dogs working well for their handlers.

Rally-O has also proved to be a useful training tool for those who do agility.

All levels of Rally-O classes are offered year round, both indoors and out, depending on time of year.

All classes and lessons are Trainer / Facilitator Courses, meaning:

WE TRAIN YOU TO TRAIN YOUR DOG

Rally Obedience # 1

6 Weeks $141.60 plus HST :: ** Ask about classes or look to the Class Schedule :: For GRADUATES of either Junior Puppy or Senior Puppy Kindergarten (or equivalent).

Rally-O is obedience, but it is a lot of fun for both the dog and the handler.

Like obedience, Rally teaches the dog focus and attention but in a more relaxed setting than formal obedience. Multiple voice commands, as well as unlimited hand signals and communication with your dog is allowed in Rally which will also build a stronger bond between the dog and it's owner.

This class is done all on leash.

Rally Obedience # 2

Trial Prep Class :: 6 Weeks $141.60 plus HST :: For GRADUATES of Rally Obedience # 1 (or equivalent).

This class is not regularly scheduled and is only available to a minimum of 4 people.

You and your dog will use what you have learned in Rally Level 1 and run full courses. This class is a lot of fun and helps prepare both dog and handler for Novice level Rally-O competitions.

Each class will be set up like a trial situation, with "walk thrus" and off leash running of the courses.

For safety reasons, only one dog will be allowed off leash at a time in the class room situation.

Rally Obedience # 3
