Where can you start doing rally obedience? You can call your local town club, go on line to see if there is any training schools around you and see if they teach rally. A great thing because it is so easy to get started your self is that you can get the signs, you can get the book written by Bud Kramer on Rally O and you can make your own sign holders so you can start practicing at home and just make sure that your dog knows all the basic exercises that you need to do with them in order to complete the course.
