tire to tunnel to jump

It was course night and we were able to run three times.  The beginning was a tire with a left turn into the far side of a tunnel.  The third time, we came up with the "slingshot" method--instead of placing the dog in front of the tire, we set them far to the left and did more of a moving start, so they actually end up doing a U-turn into the tunnel.

weave exit to that jump in the middle

Coming out, there's a jump, then an angled weave entrance.  I clicked for Teka all the way through and she was great once she figured out the entrance.  Coming out of the weaves was a wonky turn to a jump, then a right turn to the A-frame.

A-frame, jump on left then right, table

Coming off the A-frame was a right turn over a jump, then keeping them out long enough to come back over the next jump to the table.

table (left), jump, tunnel

Coming off the table, there is a jump with another in front of it that they don't go over.  Instead, it's a left turn into a tunnel that is right next to the dog walk.  The only way we were successful here was for me to move all the way to the other side of the jump while the dog was on the table, then do a front cross to the tunnel.

serpentine jumps (right), chute (left)

Coming out of the tunnel was a right turn to the teeter, which they both did great.  (I gave Cassi a click at the pivot and the end.)  Then a right turn to the jump and another right to the dog walk.  I tried it the easy way on the right, and then a front cross to be on the left.  On the other end, it was better to have done it on the left, but it was a little awkward with the tunnel there.

From the dog walk was a left turn to a jump (although the tunnel was directly in front of us) and then into a serpentine.  This serpentine leaves a tricky entrance to the chute.  I was so pleased that Teka is doing her "go-on" over the last jump.
