This class  helps to prepare the handler and dog for Canine Good Citizenship testing and introduces skills needed for Rally I.

    Please note: This class is normally repeated several times for dogs and handlers to master the skills presented.  Dogs must master the skills of healing (including right, left and about turns)  fronts, right and left finishes, and focus to progress to Rally or Advanced classes.  Dogs and handlers learn at different speeds depending on past experience in training, age of dog etc.
