Rally (also referred to as Rally-O or Rally Obedience) is a sport in which the dog and handler maneuver through a course comprised of stations (10-20 depending on the level). Each station has a sign providing instructions regarding the skill to be performed. An example of a station sign would be: “Halt. Sit. Walk around dog”. This is a great way to practice all those focusing and manners skills you’ve worked on in other classes and helps you prepare to compete, if desired.

Do you have a social butterfly that loves everyone and everything?  Have you thought about putting those special skills to use to bring joy and comfort to those who could benefit?  Therapy Dogs are specially trained to utilize their natural calm temperaments in environments that are not so natural like hospitals, hospice, assistant living, adult daycares, nursing homes and the like.  These environments can be noisy, unpredictable, have odd smells, weird equipment, strange flooring and residents that can do unexpected things like screaming, crying, squeezing your dog, uncontrollable movements, etc.....

This  course prepares you and your dog on how to deal with these things confidently so you as a team can provide a much needed and appreciated service. Your dog should already be well socialized and have good basic manners,

 Available Sundays 

Does your dog bark or lunge at other dogs or people? Is taking a walk anything   put pleasurable?  Have you been unable to attend a "regular" obedience class because of these challenges?  This class is for you!
