On our thir try, he went throug when a man pushed him hard rom the rear, the teacher blocked his escape, and I pulled him through. However, I expect the same problem next week.
Otherwise he's great! Terrific on the see-saw, outstanding with all the jumps, good on the weave, excellent on the pause table. But the tunnel freaked him out. I wish that he had watched all the other dogs go through, but he was fascinated by a female German Shepherd that he knows outside of class, and he couldn't take his eyes off her -- paid no attention to all the other dogs performing. The Shepherd was coming right behind us, so he was still going through the obstacles when she was doing the tunnel. He really wanted to know when he was going to get a chance to play with his friend!
I need a tunnel to practice at home, I think. It's just finding an affordable one that is the problem.
