[/QUOTE]The only thing he refused to do was jump through the tire-thing. (Sorry, I have no idea what any of this stuff is called!) He did go through the weave once but only with me guiding him with a treat!

My new teacher says throw the treat through the tire. That really seems to help teach it. Do the weave poles tilt to the sides? For teaching in class the poles are angles out alternately. If you got him to go through with a treat and they are straight up that's great! In my old class we used a yard stick with peanut butter on it to lead them through so that we could stand more upright. My new fancy class has these sticks with a clip on the end to hold a treat.
It doesn't matter what you call the stuff to your dog, just be consistent. We call the tire a jump since it is one, the A-frame and board walk thing 'up', and teeter, tunnel and weave.
It really is fun and the dogs love it. Now that Daisy knows the words I tell her on the way to class where we are going. "Do you want to jump? Do you want to go tunnel?" She gets so happy!
