Pet Dog Rally Freestyle is a new division for PDRO in 2016, combining moves and positions from HWTM Freestyle in the format of Rally-Obedience. Incorporating the ethos of PDRO, this new division will build on the team’s obedience skills while encouraging creative and novel behaviours on a Rally-Obedience style course. In essence, a team will follow a numbered course with the dog performing the exercises at each station. Many of the signs are familiar to PDRO competitors in the ‘ON Side ‘ levels. 2017 saw the introduction of Pet Dog Rally Heelwork. Using our tested format this new division requires handlers and dogs to work in a consistent heel position. Heelwork moves on the left and right plus one other (minimum) are used in Novice level . 2018 sees the introduction of our Link and Choose level together with Routines! |
