Urgh Rally Judges!
Got this from one of my students who showed in Rally at her national last
weekend: Ed xxxxxxx's course was much better designed than xxxxx xxxxxxx we were in a 40 x 50 ring but she only used *half* of it, we had a 360 & two 270 turns & 2 about turns in a 20 x 50 space. The dogs never got to move, we were turning in circles !!!! And xxxxx let one girl trot thru the course & she got a 4th. She should have been disqualified or something. When I saw that girl trot and then it was my turn & xxxxx said "Any questions?" I said "Yes, are we allowed to run thru the course?" and she said, "well with the way the course is set up you really can't run, so I suggest you walk as fast as you can" I'm like, ok she probably NQ'd that girl & then I see her win a ribbon. She had a 99, as did Oz & Tommy that day I know she beat us on time... oh well ... Anyway, it was nice to win at the Nationals! (She took 1st the next day from "Ed"). The horror, a 20x50?!?!?!?!

I cannot imagine trying to get a proper heel on my dog in a tiny space like that because he has a long stride. During heel, I have to really move myself or he looks like he's adjusting too much. Rally looks like fun, and I've tried it w/ Coda before. I hope by the time I get around to it, a lot of the kinks will be worked out! :-) Shelly & The Boys |

I can't wait for Rally to be titling. I'm playing with Viva in it and we just started a new class. I played around with Rally when it was first announced 3 years ago. |
