Rally Practice Courses, Novice to Excellent
7 weeks
We will use a 90-minute class period to accommodate students at skill levels from Novice through Excellent.
The practice courses will include signs from all skill levels. Every station will have a Novice level sign for beginner teams, with alternate signs for those who wish to practice Advanced or Excellent. Each handler/dog team will be able to perform the course twice during each class. Prior experience with Rally is helpful but not required.
