What is it?  Rally obedience, also known as Rally or Rally-O, is a dog sport based on obedience.  Unlike regular obedience, instead of waiting for the judge’s orders, the competitors proceed around a course of designated stations with the dog in heel position.  The course consists of 10-20 signs that instruct the team what to do.  Unlike traditional obedience, handlers are allowed to encourage their dogs during the course.

MBDTC holds an Obedience/Rally trial every year in the fall.  See our events calendar for more information.
