The stuck in the ground poles weren't working for clumsy kavik, they kept

I ended up springing for a nice set on a base. I did mine basically because
I'm lazy and hated having to remeasure and pound rebar every time I mowed the
lawn.

I think the most expensive thing I have is a tunnel, which costs 300$
including shipping ( a fortune).


Yikes! I got a tunnel for 110 including shipping and handling. Of course it
isn't a competion tunnel, but it is a good size and lighter than the comp
tunnels too.

If its too big to be shipped to alaska USPS, you have to ship it UPS Two Day
air to get it to Alaska.

Really? I don't know a clumsier dog than Rocky, but mine hold
in very well, especially now with frozen ground, heh. Are you
using the fiberglass electric fence posts?

Here's a pic:

(He was actually weaving fairly quickly until he saw the camera
and had to pose.)

I've also got 2 sets of 4 welded metal weaves that I bought for
$10 each - I add these to the stick-in-the-ground weaves to
practice all sorts of combinations.

Thats cause you dont' know my kavik! But I was using some PVC pipes with
long spikes in the bottom.

He is such a cutie. and a ham!

Looks like the weaves work well for him. Suppose its too late now but will
suggest to students in future instead of pvc.
