Rally obedience trials are less structured than obedience trials. In rally, you and your dog negotiate a course consisting of signs that instruct you to do anything from a sit and stay to weaving through pylons, or even performing a figure-eight exercise while your dog has to ignore strategically placed food bowls! You can talk to and encourage your dog throughout the course. Although the course is different each time, it must conform to standards set out by the Canadian Kennel Club.

NYOC regularly offers rally training classes.
