Capital teaches AKC-style Rally. According to the AKC website,
"Rally provides a link from the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program
to obedience or agility competition, both for dogs and handlers.
In addition, rally promotes fun and enjoyment for dogs at all levels of competition."
Rally uses 50 signs to build a course.
There are three levels: Novice, Advanced and Excellent.
Each dog-handler team follows the course, walking from sign-to-sign at a brisk pace
and working as a team.
To register, you must provide:
Students will be instructed in correct performance of the AKC Rally signs. Rally courses will
be set up, using the signs learned to-date. Students will be given course
maps. There will be a discussion on how to read a map and "walk" the course. Deductions will be explained.
Other aspects of Rally and "tips" will be discussed.
Prerequisites: To enroll, dogs must have completed
at least Advanced Basic
and should also be enrolled in a Subnovice obedience class (or higher level).
This is NOT a basic obedience class.
