Based on Talking Dogs Rally®,  this course is designed specifically for dogs and their owners with an emphasis on fun, welfare and support. It is a wonderfully non-competitive sport where each handler navigates a course which has numbered signs. All exercises are based on the practical skills that help dogs to behave well.
