Listers and PC Board Members: I have a question that seems to be in the mind of many members, specially those participating in Rally Obedience. With the addition of Rally Obedience to the many performance venues offered and approved by AKC, why is there a delay in recognizing Rally Obedience as a performance title and furthermore, a qualifying title to achieve AOE? I may be wrong and I am sure someone will point that out <G>, but do we not accept pre-trial herding pass/fail scores for AOE? I understand that the following committees recognize Rally: Dual Award, PAM, and ATAA. But not the AOE committee. Is this correct and if so what's the problem?
