I am hoping he does well in obedience class and who knows - we might do agility, too!

The club that has the class we are taking also has rally classes - is that the same as agility?
Rally is very different from agility. In rally you walk courses with your dog and follow directions on signs along the way. We did a little bit of rally in one of Sadie's classes. Sadie is so young that it was really hard for her to have that much control outside and off leash. I wasn't very good at it either - I had a hard time following the signs. We decided to stick with agility for now. I do think we'll try a rally class later when she's more settled. Where we take classes they reccomend taking rally before taking the CGC prep class.
