Training

 Train this like the open tunnel. Scrunch up chute. With each pass elongate the chute but handler keeps it "open" and makes eye contact with dog to call it through. When the chute is finally extended at full length the handler "drops" the chute when the dog is 3/4 of the way through the chute. Then the chute is dropped earlier and earlier until the dog is actually burrowing through the entire chute. (Katie Greer)
