Course Details Level: Excellent (CARO) Space Required: 50’x70′ Designer: Ayoka Bubar Comments: Yet another shorter course which makes for a lot of hard work – but it’s over rather quickly!

If you have a dog that is very obstacle focused, she could easily beContinue reading “Rally Course of the Week – October 10, 2011”
