Training
Most dogs seem to love going into tunnels, although they can find them
a bit scary at first. The best way to encourage your dog is to
make sure that the tunnel is short and straight and that the dog can see
from one end to the other easily. Get someone to hold the dog at
the entrance while you go to the other end and call the dog through.
For flexible tunnels that have a chute you will need to hold the end
open at first and make sure your dog has plenty of rewards. Never
force a reluctant dog. Get the dog to watch while more experienced
dogs go through the tunnel first. Once they've learned to do it
you won't be able to keep them out.
