What is RallyO?
Great Question, I’d love to tell you. Rally-O (short for Rally Obedience) is a dynamic and engaging dog sport that combines elements of traditional obedience with an extra splash of fun. It’s designed to showcase the bond between you and your dog, focusing on teamwork, and communication.
In Rally-O, you and your dog navigate a course with a series of stations, each requiring a specific obedience skill or task. Unlike traditional obedience, Rally-O encourages a more relaxed and interactive approach, allowing you to encourage, praise, and reward your dog throughout the course.
Benefits of Rally-O Include:
🐾 Strengthening your Relationship: Enhance your relationship with your dog through positive interactions and teamwork.
🏅 Mental and Physical exercise: Keep both you and your dog mentally sharp and physically active by learning a variety of new skills.
🎉 Fun and Engaging: Enjoy a lively and supportive community where both you and your dog can thrive.
💼 Inclusivity: Suitable for dog and handler team of all ages, abilities, and skill levels. (accommodations are available for both dogs and humans)
