Get ready to rally with Rachel! This comprehensive program will equip you and your 4-legged teammate with all the skills you need to earn your Novice Rally title from AKC (and most other organizations) – in fact, it’s guaranteed!**
Whether your goal is to compete in virtual rally or attend rally trials, Rachel Flatley will help you master everything from the basic skills to ring-ready heeling. The course includes invaluable tips and instruction for performing novice signs and is packed with examples of a dog learning the required skills as well as expertly executing them.
**Guarantee: If you complete all the weeks of this course AND submit at least 3 videos/week showing your performance of the skills from that week (at least 1 video each week must demonstrate you are advancing moving attention/heeling) and do not earn the 3 qualifying scores needed for your Rally Novice title within 5 attempts, you may take the class a second time (with the same dog) for free. Proof of non-qualifying attempts required.

'When I first met Rachel 11 years ago, I was just beginning to be involved with dog sports. Since then, I have been able to accomplish goals that I had never considered to even strive for. What impresses me most about Rachel is how she can accomplish training goals with dogs without them knowing they are being 'trained.' They would title their sessions "How we have FUN with Rachel." For anyone who has watched Rachel compete in agility or obedience, you have seen dogs who think they are there to have fun. She instills in her own dogs and passes on to students that running agility, retrieving a dumbbell, or choosing that correct scent article isn’t a chore but rather a fun game that will lead to MORE fun games. Without following just one style of teaching, she takes what works best for particular dogs and clients and incorporates that into a plan for success. There are MANY of us out there that can proudly wear the T-shirt 'We Did It With Rachel!'" —L.B.
"I have a non-traditional breed for obedience. Piper is my third competition English Springer Spaniel. With my past two, I have done Rachel's seminars and it helped with their confidence, but they didn't have Rachel's foundation. When I got this puppy, I wanted an OTCH dog and Rachel is giving me the skills to get it. Piper is from the same breeding lines as my other dogs, so I know the difference is Rachel. We started with group puppy classes, advanced to a competition class, and now we're fine-tuning our skills in private lessons. The best part of training with Rachel is she listens to your challenges and finds you a solution that will work for you and your dog. She has never said, 'You picked a challenging breed for obedience.' When people say, 'I love Rachel, but she's just too far,' I tell them my friend and I drive 2.5 hours each way. People don't think about the fact that it's an investment in your dog show career. I see people struggle with problems and think, 'Rachel can fix that.' You still have to put the time in, but she'll give you the tools you need." —S.G.
"Rachel is an extraordinary dog trainer and instructor for multiple reasons. Rachel's individual accomplishments speak loud and clear on their own as to her prowess as a trainer. I think, however, it is the overview and summation of those individual accomplishments that highlight what an extraordinary dog trainer she is. Nationally there are few trainers with multiple dogs each of which individually has reached the top levels of multiple performance sports including obedience, agility, and rally. Rachel's intelligent mind, quick wit, insight, and passion for the sport combine to make her an excellent teacher. Join those characteristics with a commitment to game-based, positive training methods and you find an instructor who can pull you out of any tricky training corner with fun and humor to boot. And finally demonstrating one of the characteristics of a truly great teacher, Rachel is and will always remain herself an avid student of dog training which will continue to benefit her students with new possibilities, insights into current trends, and exposure to other top trainers in the country. It has always been a privilege to learn from her." —J.B.
"In one sentence: if it weren't for Rachel, my German Shorthaired Pointer's obedience career would have ended two years ago. Period! There were occasions when her solutions seemed unorthodox, but they worked. Thank you, Rachel." —L.G.
