Rally is a relatively new sport in which you may compete with your Field Spaniel.  There are 3 levels of Rally competition, from Rally Novice through Rally Advanced Excellent.  In a Rally event, the dog and handler complete a course at their own pace, from one station to the next.  Each station has a sign with instructions regarding a skill that is to be performed. Scoring is not as rigorous as traditional obedience and perfect heel position is not required.  In addition, you are allowed to talk to your dog during a Rally course; in fact— talking is encouraged. Harsh commands and/or corrections are penalized in the scoring.
