Rally Obedience
Rally Obedience was created to bring a new level of fun and enjoyment to the sport of competitive obedience. The dog and handler team move continuously through a rally course of 10-20 signs with the dog at the handler's left side. At each numbered sign they perform the indicated exercise then move to the next sign. Unlimited communication is encouraged — the handler can talk to the dog and give multiple commands and signals. The performance and scoring is less rigorous than traditional obedience.
