Agile is not a term that comes easily to mind about my beasts, but check this out.

Maybe if there was a side of beef and a large couch at the end of a run...

Haha, That's a once in a lifetime shot!  But Danes are actually pretty popular in agilty.  most of them don't do the upper levels too well, but many of them are titled.

excellent pics!  of course the jumps arent the problem, they can simply step over them. but the tunnel and the weave poles, is a bit more of a challenge :)  they really have to hunker down in the tunnel and they are taller than the weave poles themselves!  thanks for sharing-these are great!

AHA.  Finally a pic of that gorgeous Merlin.

Dane Agility.  In my house that is an oximoron.

That's awesome.  I've seen danes do agility before, and it's quite a sight to see.  The tunnels amaze me, b/c they almost have to crawl thru them.  I heard of one dane that got stuck in the tunnel, kept running, and carried the tunnel with him across the field.   :D

Yeah, I'm really stuck on the tunnel.  I'm having visions of it attached to Bella's butt as she sailed over the next jump and over the see-saw.  ROLMAO!!!  However, it's obviously done so it's possible.  I don't know if I would want to teach min ethat they are as big as the fence and they can go over it.  Yes, mine would make the connestion...  Bella already knows she can jump a 4' fence.
