Charlie has been training Schutzhund dogs since 1985 when he purchased his first dog, Hanko vom Hohen Odenwald.  Known as "Charlie Dog" Hanko went on to attain his Schutzhund 3 in 1988.  Since then Charlie has owned several top competition dogs including Droll von Fuchspalchen SchH 3, Prico van de Zennevallei SchH 3 known as "Zeus", Torro van Het Bleekhof SchH 3, and now, Nike - Aceofnike van Het Bleekhof SchH 3.

Testimonials:

"I was looking for a European dog that could be exhibited in all performance venues - Working Dog Sport, AKC Obedience, German style conformation and the American show ring. Charlie found it in Helios! 

I couldn't be happier!"

Suzanne Kinman, German Shepherd breeder/exhibitor and AKC Judge
