Miscellaneous

Scottish Deerhounds compete in conformation, lure coursing, for some states of the USA, in hare coursing and coyote hunting, where it is still legal. A few are trained to succeed in obedience competition but few excel in it, and fewer still excel in dog agility or flyball because the courses and activities are generally designed for smaller dogs with lower body weight and a much shorter stride.
