A Rally Obedience
Is a
new canine event in Slovenia officially recognized since 2007. In RO the
dog and the handler had to perform different linked up exercises on the
course previously set up by the judge. There are motion exercises that
include heeling with direction changes, speed changes, different figures
around the traffic cones and performance of different obstacles (jumps,
a see-saw, a table, a tunnel, weave poles).
Stationary exercises include the changes of the dogs body position in
different sequences, staying in the place, adjusting the dogs position
to the handlers position, handling at the distance and similar.
I
started to do RO with Grom for the similar reasons as everything else,
to try something new. It turned out that RO exercises (specially RO IV)
are really useful for warming up at the agility competitions. I also
managed to test our performance at the RO competitions.
