Description:

This class combines Rally Obedience (Relax version) and Bonding Games. Each week, you will work on various movements and integrate them into FUN Rally Obedience. It is designed purely for enjoyment, but it also helps strengthen your bond with your dog and boost obedience skills. The ideal age for participants is dogs over six months with some prior training. This class does not focus on addressing behaviour problems. Rally-O is a sport based on obedience exercises, involving active warm-up and freestyle routines. It requires teamwork between the dog and handler and develops performance skills similar to those of traditional obedience. The handler moves around 10 to 20 designated stations with the dog in the heel position. At each station, a sign provides instructions for the specific exercise required of the dog. No new registrations are accepted after the class starts and there is no make-up class if you miss class. Please ensure your dog wears a flat buckle collar, front-clipped harness, or head halter for the class. Pinch, choke, or shock collars are not allowed. Please refrain from using retractable leashes. Please Note: This class does not focus on behavior modification. Dogs that are newly adopted or have little to no prior training experience should enroll in the Beginner Class to build core foundation skills.
