possibly not what you are expecting... September 20, 2005 daniel 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
if you are looking for a lot of rally course diagrams plus the rules this is the book for you. but if you want a book that is the successor to kramer's rally books -- both editions being published prior to rally becoming an akc sanctioned event --- you may, as i was, be disappointed. this book is not what i expected - that being a definitive book with sections including not only detailed "how to's" on the exercises finally accepted by the akc at the three competitive levels of rally, but more importantly a detailed explanation of the possible errors and the applicable deductions. this info is available but it is scattered and to date not i don't believe included in a single document.on the other hand, if you are primarily looking for a lot of examples of possible rally courses then this is the book for you.
Rally Book September 18, 2005 K. Golemon (Boston, MA USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a great book. The author splits it up like the novice, advanced, and excellent course for course 1, and then the same for course 2 and so on. The only problem is that some of the courses are a bit hard to understand. The beginning of the book has detailed instructions for all of the excercises, as well as how to make your own course. Overall, I really liked this book, and is was a great help with training both my Bernese Mountain Dog and my pug.
