AKC Rally Training

We were invited to the practice run of the newly offered AKC Rally Classes at our local Petco. 

We made it to four of the five classes over the past six weeks, and it has been really fun to see how excited Sunny is to learn these more complicated commands and routines. Now that this session is at an end, we’re eager to find ways to keep practicing these skills while we wait for the next to begin.

Our biggest tip for anyone thinking to try it out is to download the very unattractive $2 app called Pocket Rally. There are instances when the class moves quickly or it's difficult to remember what a particular sign means, which is when the app comes in handy! Under the matching sign is a description of the expected action and a video showing the action as well.

In the meantime, maybe we'll look into those interactive learning toys for the little dude. #yeswearethosepeople
