Rally obedience anyone?!?!?!?

I just recieved my April 2001 copy of Dog Fancy and they had an interesting article on the new sport that has popped up - rally obedience!

It's supposed to be more fun than formal obedience because you can talk to your dog, praise it and encourage it along the way.

It sounds really interesting and I can't wait until AKC makes this an official class where you can get titles and stuff!

Has anybody else heard about rally? It sounds really neat!

I've done a little searching on the internet to find out more about this cool sport. Here are two web sites that have some stuff on RO.
