Thanks Jani - I love doing Rally with both of my dogs. Even though Briley got his RN title, I'm going to practice him in a few more shows before we move onto our Advanced level. My Golden however, is competeing next month in his first Rally Advanced. Hopefully that goes well!

Ok, thank´s for your answer :) I´ve been treining with my dogs normal obedience and that rally seems like an easy as obedience is. Pity that we don´t have a possibility doing rally here in Finland.

Sophie - Rally is great fun!! You can talk, clap, encourage your dog all you want and you can repeat your commands. You may not touch your dog though. The higher your competing level goes the less "encouragement" you can give your dog, but you may always talk to them. It's really good for dogs that aren't quite ready for the formal obedience ring but yet eager to get out and start showing. Rally is like obedience meets agility, there is a course you follow at your own speed while the judge critiques your run.
