Hello Working fans!
The BOD is pleased to advise that a new tracking sheet for Working passes has been created! The spreadsheet can be found under "forms' on the website. Scroll to the last table at the bottom. The document contains two options for participants to choose from.
1. A short form that tracks up to Honours Championship on one page.
2. A long form for each of the Championship and the Honours Championship.
It can be found on the forms page: https://www.canadianrallyo.ca/page/Forms
Have fun out there!

1. Remote & new areas – to introduce CARO to new regions, to give an opportunity to clubs without judges to provide trials, to bring in new judges to areas where few judges are available.
2. Shadow/Cooperating Judge Support – to provide support to persons in their pursuit of becoming a judge.
3. Judging Requirements – to give current judges in remote areas and small clubs support to achieve their judging requirements.
4. General – to provide support for small clubs and to bring in new judges or send judges from smaller areas to locations with larger trials.
Trial hosts who wish to apply for funding are invited to submit an application form which can be found on the website under Trials/Trial Forms. https://www.canadianrallyo.ca/page/Trials
Please note that funding is limited. The Board will review all applications submitted by the deadline of June 23rd and allocate available funding based on the criteria above.
Please note also that this is a pilot program. We thank you in advance for your patience as we learn from this first running of the process.
A special shout out to Prairies Director Kim Masiak for all of her hard work on this project!

The review of Working Titles has now been completed and the certificates were mailed last week. Members can log in to their account to check their dog’s record. Non-members can check https://www.canadianrallyo.ca/page/titles, select 2023 and sort on their dog’s name. Titles resulting from the Working Handbook revisions will have a date of April 1, 2023.
If there is a title missing from your dog’s record, please email Barb Burgess at [email protected].
CARO is pleased to announce that virtual Judges Clinics will be held on a quarterly basis! These clinics are open to both current judges and judge candidates. Rally clinics will be held on: June 17th, September 28th and December 9th 2023. Dates for working clinics are pending. This message will also be sent by email to our judge and judge candidate communities. Meeting invitations will be forwarded closer to the dates.
Working Titles
All the March trials have been entered and I’m nearly finished getting the Judge’s Trial Records ready for the Spring Virtual Trial. Next on my list – Working Titles.
If you have previously reported earning a Working Title, your dog’s record will be reviewed. Any titles earned based on the new rules will be assigned with a date of April 1, 2023 (the date the updated Working Handbook came into effect). This process could take a couple of months and during this time, there may a delay in entering trial results.
We will let everyone know when the review is completed and certificates have been mailed out. Members will be able to check their records for completeness on the website.
Please continue to list any titles earned after April 1, 2023 on the Titles Achieved Sheet provided for trials.
CARO is pleased to release some updates to the Master General Handbook 2022 (Rally- MGH2022). These amendments are effective as of April 30th, 2023. Questions can be directed to the Board of Directors.
The amendment document can be found on the handbooks page.
