You have to be a Border Collie if you want to herd sheep, but other than that I don't think so.

If you are asking about the athletic events, absolutely not. Competitors come from all countries and backgrounds.
Go for it.

Re: Question
No...however one DOES have to be able to pick up a big frickin' telephone pole and flip it end over end....I think that having a kilt is also considered a plus.

Our Border Collie (She died about 5 years ago) used to ignore sheep and round up the geese. I suppose it was easier as she was getting on a bit.

The best dogs ever.
At highland games a couple of years ago I saw them rounding up ducks.
