$45.00

Description

Dee Dee Anderson is an AKC Rally judge and exhibitor, and the only person to win the AKC Rally National with her Golden Retriever “Sliver” in 2015 and win the AKC National Obedience Championship in 2007 with her Golden Retriever “Dream”.

The goal of this DVD is to help you improve your Rally scores at all levels – and to show you how to earn those perfect 100 scores.  You will learn all the secrets for completing courses faster and with greater precision – with valuable insights from someone who is not only an AKC judge, but who has also experienced the highest levels of Rally competition and won.

Part 1 of this DVD covers an overview of Rally and introduces all the Rally Novice signs used in AKC Rally trials. The Novice station signs are explained in detail with suggestions for how to train for them and how do complete them correctly.  Of special value is Dee Dee’s commentary describing the typical mistakes made by handlers in the ring that end up costing points.

There is a tremendous amount of information on this DVD – giving the viewer an experience more like participating in a seminar given in the comfort of your home.

Note: buy the DVD “New Rally signs 2017” to go along with this DVD.
