Rally Obedience

Rally Obedience Class


For dogs over 6 months of age who have successfully completed Beginning Home Obedience and/or Advanced Home Obedience.  Rally is the fun new sport that combines agility and obedience.  Dogs and handlers navigate a course of basic obedience exercises.   For more information on Rally, including the exercises, visit this website: www.rallyobedience.com.    (Note:  Rally is for mixed breed, as well as purebred dogs.)  Bring your dog & current training equipment the first week. 

Please Note:  If you have done your dog training at another facility and wonder whether or not your dog is ready for Advanced Home Obedience or Rally Obedience, here's a list guidelines that will help you make that determination.   If you still do any of the following, you're not ready for Advanced Home Obedience -- we would recommend Beginning Home Obedience class for you and your dog.   (Of course, please contact us if you have a special situation that you'd like to discuss.)

  • You have to repeat commands. We do not believe in repeating commands. Nagging dogs is like nagging children or spouses...and you know how well that works!
  • You say "No" a lot. We don't believe in saying "no" or yelling at dogs. It might work temporarily, but it doesn't teach the dog what you really want him to do in the first place!
  • Your dog pulls on the leash. We teach dogs how to walk beside you without pulling and to sit when you stop walking - all on the first command.
  • Your dog won't come when called. We will show you how to train a reliable recall - and only say "come" one time!
  • Your dog won't stay for one to three minutes around distractions. Sit-stay, down-stay and stand-stay - around distractions!!! - are taught in our Beginning Home Obedience classes.
  • You're still having behavior problems. We will help you find the best solution for barking, chewing, digging, jumping up, and other common problems.
