Canine competitive obedience training and theory. This group is primarily geared toward those working on advanced training past the Novice stage.

OBED-COMP is a discussion list of issues relating to competitive obedience. Discussions of all methods and philosophies of training are welcome, as long as they relate to competitive obedience. For the purposes of this list, "competitive obedience" will be defined as any training with the primary goal of preparing a dog for formal competition in the obedience ring. This list is NOT limited to AKC obedience, although discussions of AKC odedience may tend to dominate. Discussions of all levels of competitive training (from Novice to OTCh and beyond) are welcome.
