AKC Novice Rally obedience
Time: 7:30 pm – Instructor: Amanda Ulbrich
This Novice Rally is a class for dogs with a solid basic obedience foundation to be introduced to the sport of AKC rally. Over the 6 weeks, dog and handler teams will learn the signs they can expect to see at the rally novice level and work on building up to navigating a full length rally novice course on week 6. The last class (week 7) will be course night, where students will have the option to take a video to submit to AKC for a qualifying score towards their Rally Novice title.
Dogs are expected to know how to walk on leash, sit, and lay down.
Flat collars, slip leads/collars, and martingales are allowed in class. No head collars, training collars, or harnesses as those are not allowed in rally.
