AKC Rally

AKC Rally Training --- Saturday July 14, 2007

July 14, 1st of 3 rally sessions in preparation for the competition at the National,Neuman's gym, Frederick, MD

You and Your Beardie Will Love It!
Registration Deadline is July 11
Want to have some fun and at the same time hone some of your Beardie communications skills and perhaps earn an AKC title? What better place to begin your title quest than at the national specialty this October? There will only be
other Beardies there so it will be a great place start. On Saturday July 14, 2007, the NCBCC will offer the first of three training sessions for you and your Beardie in a new AKC dog obedience skill called AKC Rally. All sessions are geared for the beginner rally level.
Your instructor for session one is NCBCC’s own Terry Johnson. Terry will explain each exercise for AKC Novice using pictures and a demo. You will then practice the exercises with your Beardie with Terry as your coach and assisted by other
experienced club members. The beginning level of rally is all on leash and you may talk to your dog the whole time you are in the ring. You follow the course set by the judge and perform the exercises on each sign you come to. It’s a lot
of fun for you and your Beardie.

Session 1 is at the Frederick Athletic Club (indoors), 5245 Westview Drive,
Frederick, MD, tel. 301-668-0160 from 9 am to 11 am.
Session 2 is on August 18
Session 3 is on September 8 (see calendar).
Prerequisite: Your Beardie must know how to sit , down and come on command (everything on leash) and be able to walk on the leash without constant pulling.

The cost is FREE but approximately eight Beardie teams need to register. To register: send an email to Tony Vallone at tjvallone@verizon.net
