Rally Obedience

There is a belief that Irish Wolfhounds will not do Obedience. Like many false beliefs, there is a kernel of truth to the belief. Irish Wolfhounds will not blindly do Obedience.

But, if you make it fun, they will enjoy it and even do well.
These pictures are from the Rally Novice competition last year.

Congratulations to Cari and Doug Hensley who raised and trained the (occasionally) obedient dogs.
