another Congrats & New Title, this one to Starry! ๐ŸŽ‰ we entered the CRO Game "1-2-3 Ping Pong" which has a time element, combining precision & speed. She earned a 100 / perfect score(!) and the "Fastest" time category with time 43 seconds. I opted to showcase her stays, straight hind ends, and prompt position changes. see comments below for our List of Stations. Try this CRO Game, the time element makes it super fun!

๐ŸŽ‰ On May 1, Cyber Rally-O launched a Foundation Rally Skills titling program! ๐ŸŽ‰ The CRO FS program is open to dogs and handlers of all skill levels! The program is an optional adjunct to the CRO titling tracks and may be done at any time before, during, or after a dog has earned other CRO titles.

The skills demonstrated in this program pertain to rally but also serve as a foundation for other dog sports, boosting confidence and enhancing the relationship between dog and handler. The program is a structured and easy way to introduce an inexperienced handler and/or dog (whether puppy or adult) to the fun of training. It is also a way to enjoy low-stress training with an older dog.

ALL TEAMS are welcome to enjoy this program. Dogs and/or handlers with disabilities will find CRO to be flexible and accommodating. ๐Ÿ‘

ALL ANIMALS are welcome to enjoy this program. Though โ€œdogsโ€ are referenced in most of our documentation, other animals (cats, horses, sheep, goats, etc.) are welcome to participate. In fact, CRO now has a feline title holder! ๐Ÿˆ

The CRO FS exercises can all be done at home. Most can be done in a very small space. No special equipment is needed.

The program has four levels and four titles. Dogs may complete any or all levels in any order. There are no prerequisites for any level. More than one level may be entered with the same entry form. It is suggested that inexperienced handlers and/or dogs begin with Level 1 and complete each level in order.

SMART DOGS students and also the Posse & I are having big fun working through the levels - reviewing skills, polishing skills, identifying skill gaps. Here's Starry's FS Level 2 title entry https://vimeo.com/940026290?share=copy

loads of learning and fun in FITNESS & SOCIAL class ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ’—โ˜ฎ๏ธ in this unique class we spend about 30 minutes inside working on skills for fun, fitness & confidence, followed by 30 minutes off leash in the training field constructing & maintaining mutually enjoyable Social Interaction skills. Human-Dog interactions and Dog-Dog interactions.

All interactions are developed through CONSTRUCTIONAL AFFECTION (CAFF), CONSTRUCTIONAL LEASH WALKING (CLW), and, for some teams, the learning begins in private sessions with CONSTRUCTIONAL AGGRESSION TREATMENT (CAT).
