Rally & Competition Obedience
What is Rally?
Rally is a performance event offered by AKC and UKC that requires handlers & dogs to run through obedience skills laid out in a course using signs with various directional and stationary exercises. There are three main competition levels with increasing difficulty as teams progress.

Competition Obedience
Beyond basic manners and companion training skills competition performance events give handlers goals for higher learning and increasing the partnership with your dog. AKC and UKC offer levels of competition with similar foundation skills for each with a few variations of exercises depending on the venue.
