Your dog needs to drive through #1 to #3, and then you must cue him about the turn at #4 back to #5. Figures 5 and 6 have more sequences for asking your dog to drive ahead and extend. Remember to have fun and really encourage your dog to drive ahead if he is unsure of doing that on his own. Reward highly with toys and verbal praise. Figures 7 through 10 contain sequences that require your dog to extend and move quickly, slow down for a turn, and then extend again. Can you cue your dog to extend, then collect, and then extend again before he approaches the obstacles? Can you do this while still keeping your dog motivated? He should be able to happily drive forward and also slow down for a turn. Have fun training and reward often!
