This book does a lot of stuff for you and your dog pupil(s). It teaches you how to make the dog enjoy working, make concepts super easy for it to grasp, make it so the dog learns the behaviors it needs very, very well, and, of course, tells you what the APDT and AKC rally courses require of you and how to go through the courses and kick butt! Basically it prepares you and your dog for a great, delightful journey down the training road :)
Wonderful!

What an eye opener for Rally. The information can be used in a wider range of training than just Rally which is nice when you consider how many books there are about Dog Training in general. My little girl and I are getting ready for our first Rally trial and I'm comfortable to say we are ready because of the book. Great addition even if you've been training for a while or just getting started in Rally, Obedience and would help with Agility training too!
This book is my rally obedience bible

I obtained this book recently as I was beginning to compete with my dog; I quickly have almost worn it out. I am taking classes in AKC Rally but can only compete in APDT because my dog is an "All American" (mixed breed). So I needed to have this kind of side by side comparison of the exercises. In addition, she gives you step by step instructions for each one. Although the title mentions using a clicker, it is not necessary to use one in order to find the book useful.
