Leissl’s Tunnel
We got a new tunnel in the mail on Wednesday. When I opened it up, Leissl was the first to take it, and the second. She really loves tunnels! We used to have a long straight one anchored against a fence and the dogs would play games with it similar to what Leissl was doing with Annie here. One would go inside, and Leissl, and sometimes another accomplice, would be the one/s to try to get the dog out. Leissl would get so excited, she would stomp on the thing with her front paws, the little beastie! That was not my intention here, but I’d forgotten about that game as I hadn’t had tunnels out for a couple years. She got right into it, and Annie got caught up in the game, maybe a little more than she wanted to be. Leissl looks a little like a bully in this piece, which is surprising being she’s usually more of the loner dog than the others. She’s not anti-social, but she’ll be the one more likely to go in another room to chill out in a crate than push herself onto a crowded futon. I suppose if I put the tunnel on the futon, it may be a different story!

Leissl’s enthusiasm is priceless! She looks so happy every time she emerges. Like she’s just climbed a mountain. What a fun game. 🙂
Can I ask where you bought this? Shiva is borderline obsessed with tunnels and I probably should start working on getting her to leave them alone unless I tell her to take it.
There’s a great place on-line that has good prices and free shipping in the US. Hmmm…not sure how much to Canada. It’s http://ntiglobal.com/dog-agility.cfm and they are having a sale right now. 🙂
