I was shopping w/ my dd at TJ Max. I'm not sure if you have one around you, but it sells alot of items at a discount price. My dd sees this Tube Travel and convinces me it would be great for her Doggie Day Camp w/ the Cairns. :whistle:

At first I said no, but the price was reasonable ($14.99), I told dd sure, let's try it w/ the "girls".

So, we bring it home and set it up and they all just look at it. My dd shows them how much fun it will be to chase a toy through. They still just look. Finally Kiara takes the lead, and as if to please only me, she runs through the tube.

Hannah thinks Kiara is having more fun than her and runs through after a ball that dd threw.

Now Abbey is getting excited and wants to join in.

This Tube Travel turned out to be a great buy! Sorry this is a little blurry, I didn't have the right setting on my digital for these fast moving Cairns, but your can see how much fun they now are having in their tunnel.

I have to laugh at my dd. :D She had her notebook and was actually grading the Cairns for their performance. Now she wants to add a hoop for the Cairns to jump through.

Thanks for letting me share! B)

Beth,

Did you JUST recently buy the Travel Tube??? We are still doing training classes with Darcy and one of her favorite things is the "tunnel" in training class. Thanks for sharing. We've wanted to buy one for home so she could play in it. I'll have to head over to TJ Maxx tomorrow. Thanks again for sharing!

Those are awesome pics. They look like they're having a ball. Your dogs are gorgeous!!

I got a tunnel for my crew last year to keep them occupied while playing outside. A couple weeks ago I actually looked inside it (it's like 18' long)....oh, the dirt and mud. Now I know why they enjoy it so much.

I always wanted to put in a playground for them....a slide, teeder todder. Maybe next year??

They are having so much fun!! I love the pictures. We have an old tunnel I picked up at Toys R Us but it is really for inside not out so it now is an airconditioned tunnel

I have to agree those are really great pictures, they look like they are having a blast. Time to head to TJ Max. I know we had it in Florida, now I have to search the KC area.

Yes, I bought it Monday afternoon. They were over in the children's toy section.

If you have an Ikea near you, they also sell them there. I can't remember the price but I am pretty sure they were under $20. I've looked at them several times, but have not bought one...yet! After seeing all the fun your dogs are having, I may just change my mind! The nylon is very thick and quite sturdy, so I think it would hold up pretty well.

How fun!

Children don't care how much you know...they want to know how much you care.

Your girls look like they are having a ball!!! I am afraid all Savannah would do is bark at it...

We give dogs time we can spare, space we can spare and love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made.

Great photo's. Darn I was just down the street today from T.J max. I think Kramer would love that, he loves to burrow under a blanket and get all tangled! He is too funny. I have to get my digital camera out more and start taking some shots.

Here's Darcy in her Travel Tube! She won't stay out of it... as you can see in two of her pictures she is enjoying a chew stick inside the tube.
