I've been involved in Schutzhund since 2003. My first German Shepherd is an American - German Show line mix, Lakota Vom Landsgut. She may not be the strongest dog on the field but she has taught me more than I have taught her and its been great. Lakota and I received our OB I in the Winter of 05'. My goal is to have titled her thru OB III and TR III and possibly an FH. Ron Marshall sold me my second dog (Libertys Thunders Kin - aka Ruger) which is the grandson of Butch Henderson's Kid Vom Hilchenbacher Marktplatz. We have just started his training and he is showing great promise. I hope to be competing with him in the near future.  e-mail: markbd81@hotmail.com
