Tonight at agility class, every dog was refusing to go through the tunnel. And that's normally every dog's favorite obstacle! I mean these dogs will run through and turn around and run back the other way if they have the chance. They love it.
Lyric finally was the bravest one and he went through after quite a bit of coaxing. The trainer's own dog, an aussie really had a tough time and it took two people to lure the dog through. The trainer was on her hands and knees trying to get her dog to go through when all of a sudden she exclaimed, "There's water in the tunnel!" It had rained today and a little tiny, tiny bit of puddling was inbetween the ridges of the tunnel, maybe 1/4 inch here and there. Every dog was sure they were going to die if they touched the water. LOL.
