Thanks all, the dogs love it, we all enjoy watching the dogs tear round the track, its good fun and safe exercise for Afghans that would probably never get the chance to run free at home.

Myschievious, if you let most Afghans off you will never see them again! They are the worlds worst for off lead exercise, but there will be some that are ok. They are notorious for not coming back when called and generally not easy to train. I think its probably a good thing though, because after the outburst of them in the 70's people soon realised they were not the ideal pet, and subsequently the registrations are fairly low and only the dedicated breed, good I think.

Thanks Dawn that's something I never knew and most likely is why you don't see them to often.

Thanks for the info.

Awww they are brilliant photos. They look so into it, I bet Loki would love to do that - he chases just about everything.
