You are headed out to teach your class. You stop and look for tonight’s lesson. Where did you put it? Is it with the kid’s bus schedule? How about their dance class/soccer practice dates? Maybe with their lunch calendar? Or with the TV remote and the NFL schedule? Oh! You left it at the camp when you closed it last weekend. No problem. Just grab this month’s nested courses and you are on your way. Have fun! 18 4 15 19 16 2 20 1 17 3 1 2 X 3 Advanced Course 1 13 8 14 7 Challenge handlers to lead out to a point behind the tunnel shown by the green X.

This maneuver puts the dog on the handler’s left side when going back to the #4 tunnel. It is an excellent opportunity to practice Jump-Come-cookie. 78 Clean Run | November 07
