Straight tunnels

Class this week - straight tunnels. They are turning obstacles so you need to show your dog which way to turn coming out of the tunnel before they go in! I like them. We also did straight tunnels as part of a serpentine. Some dogs did not like that at all. Serpentines of any kind are a trained skill. So if your dog has trouble with them, there is no solution other than practicing them! :)

SUPER humid in the training building. Running the outside path is NOT fun when it is so hot. Thank you Ricky for making me work so hard! But he almost outran me and that was fun!!

Tunnels look great fun, I've always wanted to try one of those! It's getting quite hot here too surprisingly, but obviously not as hot as where you are!

We once put out our old baby tunnel for Eva and she refused to get into it. I think she has already forgotten what she used to have fun in her puppy agility class. :(
