Figure 5: Start with the dog on your right. Layer the tunnel as the dog performs #4 to #6. Do a front cross from #6 to #7 and finish with the dog on your left. Figure 6: Start with the dog on your right. Send your dog to the #6 tunnel while you stay on the back side. Do a front cross while he is in the tunnel and pick him up on your left side as he exits. Keep him on your left through #10. Figure 7: Start with the dog on your left and run the back side of the tunnel. Pick up the dog on your left as he exits. Also try leading out to the back side of the tunnel with either a lead-out push or a lead-out pivot. Keep the dog on your left through

#6. Do a front cross between #6 and #7. Do another front cross again between #8 and #9. Figure 8: Start with the dog on your right. Do a front cross from #3 to #4. Send the dog to the tunnel off your left and stay on the back side of the tunnel. Pick him up on your left as he exits, but you should be on the landing side of #5 already. Do a front cross between #5 and #6. Finish with the dog on your right. Figure 9: Start with the dog on your right. Do a front or a blind cross while the dog is in the tunnel. Your cross should be completed and you should be presenting jump #3 as he exits. Do a front cross on the flat

at #5 so that the dog is entering the tunnel off your right. Keep the dog on your right through #8. Try running on the back side of the tunnel to get #9, putting the dog in off your right then doing a rear cross to pick up #10. Also try a front cross after #8, and bring the dog to the inside of #9 off your left. Figure 10: Start with the dog on your right and do a rear cross at the #4 weave poles. Do a front cross between #5 and #6. Pull the dog on your right from #7 to #8. Finish with the dog on your right. Good luck and most of all, have fun! D
