Teeter-totter (or seesaw): A 12 foot plank, 12 inches wide, pivoting on a support,
much like a child's seesaw. It is constructed slightly off-balance so that the same
end always returns to the ground. This is done either by placing the support slightly
off-center or else weighting one end of the board. This obstacle also has contact zones.
The balance point and the weight of the plank must be such that even a tiny dog can cause
the high end of the teeter-totter to descend to the ground within a reasonable amount
of time.

Tunnel: A vinyl tube, 10 to 20 feet long and about 2 feet in diameter, through
which the dog runs. The tunnel is constructed of flexible vinyl and wire, such
that it can be configured in a straight line, or in a variety of curves.
