Flyball is great as all teams are 'seeded' on the time they raced in there last 3 tournaments so you always race teams who do times that are about the same as yours so although a lab may not be the fastest they can be just as competitive. Also there are loads of multibreed tournaments througout the year and every dog in the team has to be a different breed for those (only one cross breed alolowed) Check out the British Flyball Association website and look at the breed analysis and you will see there are loads of labs and Woody who is top lab of all time has 50,889 points! that gives him his saphire award. Only 19 dogs in the UK have this award and only 11 are collies so the rest are 'other breeds'
