Rally Obedience

Cowichan Canine offers rally classes for everyone, from beginner to advanced level. Classes can be arranged privately (one student only) for 30 minutes in length or in class format, when we have several dogs interested.

Rally is all about Fun and Heeling. You can enjoy this sport simply because you wish to teach your dog to walk nicely and reliably at heel while having fun, or because you wish to compete and earn titles. Any dog, purebred or mixed breed, can compete both in CARO trials (Canadian Association of Rally Obedience) and CKC (Canadian Kennel Club) trials. Both organizations offer trials on Vancouver Island.

Here is a video of what a Rally course may look like in an official trial, made by our friend Donna Hill in Nanaimo.

Pre-Requisites

1. Parvo/distemper vaccination certificate no older than 3 years, or parvo/distemper titer certificate no older than 1 year.

2. Dog is over 8 weeks old and not reactive to other dogs or people.  

3. Students must have graduated from our Pet Manners or Foundation course, or complete a 30 minute challenge assessment to make sure they have the basic skills to benefit from this class.

What Clients Are Saying:

Just want to thank you Lisbeth and also Bev and Karen for the excellent training that Lily and I have enjoyed so much. I know Lily has enough for a pass now but we really are aiming for distinction. We are working hard at home as well to see if we can get this. Lily is so improved now. My husband says that in the mornings when he is playing ball off leash with her that she no longer runs at other dogs, she just ignores them now. I noticed when I took her to another trainer in the summer she was always panting and anxious. At Cowichan Canine she is just so happy and cannot wait to get in the door. It is her favourite place so obviously what you are doing is right and the place has great vibes for dogs. She has not reacted to the dogs in the classes either but is always wagging her tail. I am very grateful for this. We will be back in December and want to go onto greater things in advanced and we are both looking forward to it. Going to bring my other dog Cole as well.

Hi Bev – I thought I’d let you know that Cody’s behaviour has been absolutely stellar since we graduated Foundations. We’ve been doing quite a bit of off leash walking, and he is suddenly paying so much more attention, coming when he is called – even if he’s playing with other dogs – I can hardly believe it! Thanks again for all your help. Looking forward to seeing more info on Advanced Clicker and the other course you mentioned (good neighbor?) in October.
