What is Rally?

AKC Rally is the new dog sport that is taking the nation by storm,

a successful stepping stone from the AKC Canine Good Citizen program

to the world of obedience or agility. Rally offers both the dogs and

handlers an experience that is fun and energizing. The canine team

moves at their own pace, very similar to rally-style auto racing. Rally

was designed with the traditional pet owner in mind, but it can still be

very challenging for those who enjoy higher levels of competition.

A rally course includes 10 to 20 stations, depending on the level.

Scoring is not as rigorous as traditional obedience. Communication

between handler and dog is encouraged and perfect heel position is not

required, but there should be a sense of teamwork between the dog and

handler. The main objective of rally is to produce dogs that have been

trained to behave in the home, in public places, and in the

presence of other dogs, in a manner that will reflect positively on the

sport of rally at all times and under all conditions
