Agility - Which Breeds?

Hi,

I was at a UKA show yesterday, and saw an adorable dane puppy, and thought, that's a breed you don't see doing agility. We then saw a SBT(x) at champ level and a Hungarian Poolie, again not common breeds at agility shows.

This got me thinking, what breeds do we do agility with, pbviously the main types we see are collies and collie x's, but what other breeds do members do agility with.

We do it with a GSD and a collie! What about you?

We have a Border Collie, but at our training group there are Airdale, Spanish Water Dogs, SBT, Samoyeds, xbreeds, Collies, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Labs, Tollers, Beardies, a Beagle, Lurchers there must be more but I can't think of them at the moment, but I've seen Doberman and Poodles at shows as well

Cool, keep the lists coming in.

We have a Bichon in our class, and he looks fabulous when he's doing it, and I've seen a couple of miniture poodles. I would love to see a NI doing it though!
