Rally Show & Go with Virtual option (Sun, April 19, 2026)

Sun, 19 Apr 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This show & go will have a special feature -- we will be using AKC’s virtual rally courses and will offer recording of your runs so you can submit them to AKC for judging.

AKC’s virtual rally program is a way to earn rally titles up to the excellent level through video submission. Rally titles earned virtually are the same titles you would earn at in-person trials. You can earn all three legs towards a title through the virtual program, or you can combine in-person and virtual legs towards a title. If you aren’t familiar with the AKC virtual program, you can read more about it here:

The virtual rally program is ideal for shy or reactive dogs, or nervous/shy handlers.

To allow for the best recording environment, crating will be in your car with warm up outside the building. Each team will have their runs recorded with one or two club members in the building to record your run and assist you as needed. If you aren’t interested in a recorded run, but would still like some practice, we will also offer non-recorded run-throughs.

We will offer two courses at each level, so you can potentially earn two legs towards your title.

Prices are as follows:

· Virtual recording: 1 course $15, 2 courses $25

· Non recorded runs: $5 per run

Price for virtual runs do not include fee to AKC if you submit your run.

Levels offered: Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, Excellent, and Master (no virtual runs for Master)

Pre-registration is required. Payment (cash or check) will be due when you arrive. To participate, please email the following information by Sunday, April 12 to Debbie Mitchell (AnnieNFlynn@gmail.com):

Your Name
Dog Name
Class Level
Jump Height for Advanced/Excellent/Master
# of Virtual Runs 1 or 2
# of Non recorded runs

If you have any prior virtual Q’s at the level you would be doing at our event, please let us know the course number and we can select our courses accordingly.

After registration closes, we will send out a runthrough timeline along with the maps of the courses we will have for you to run.

Please bring your phone or recording device. We will have a tripod. If you do not have a way to record, we can record and email the video to you.

If you have any questions about AKC’s virtual program or our show & go, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thank you

Debbie Mitchell & Lorraine Faust
