Rally is a companion sport to traditional Obedience. Both sports require a high level of teamwork between dog and handler. In Rally competition, the dog and handler must negotiate a course of 10 to 20 stations which they move through at their own pace. Communication between handler and the dog is encouraged and a key element is teamwork and enthusiasm as they go through the course. Give Rally a try, it is fun for owners and Newfoundlands!
