On the Third Day of Christmas


Rocket Tunnels!


There are alot of tunnel companies out there. I love Rocket Tunnels. They have a lightweight one and a more heavy duty one.


I have one heavy duty one that has lived outside in the elements for six years (this is california so not terribly harsh) and is still in good condition. I have also gotten one of their lightweight ones (yellow) and it is holding up really well. What I like about the lightweight ones is I can carry it so easily. I can store it on a self in my shed because it is so light.


A couple years ago I needed another tunnel because Tazz was having trouble with dark tunnels. I got the heavy weight dark blue. I also splurged and got some tunnel bags as well. I LOVE my tunnel bags. They were expensive, but boy are they easy. I filled up trash bags with sand and put that in there and they are holding up great.


Don Soucy, the owner is a great guy and also runs dogs in agility. If you have questions, call them. And for those of you lucky enough to live on the east coast, he goes to quite a few shows over there and you can save on shipping.


You can set up your tunnel under the tree and instead of a train, your dogs can go round and round!

The Second Day of Christmas


Today on this second day of the 12 days of agility christmas (presents). I am focusing on Doggone Good. (http://www.doggonegood.com/)

This is a wonderful place to find gifts as well as excellent agility travel stuff. Originally, these gals did the best folding soft crates ever. This was way before folding soft crates were available at other places. When softcrates became mainstream they couldn't compete, but they still do a really nice pup tent.

They have one of the nices crate pads out there and it is on sale for 9.99. The only size they have left is the mini, but what a steal!

It packs up so small and you can take it anywere. It pops up and is a really nice size. When I have to pack a bunch of stuff to a trial site it is nice to have a light weight option for a crate. Tazz highly recommends it.

They also have cool gifts. They have clocks that have uniqe doggy designs.


Really nice mugs (hint hint).

There is something for everyone at Dog gone good!
Lastly, I saw this on another blog so it can't be "one of the agility days of christmas", but I thought it was a cool site. Not really great for shelties as know one would see the lights under their coat, but for other breeds it is cool: http://www.dog-e-lites.com/
