John is a member of the USA Schutzhund 3 club with his American Bulldog, Levi. He is the 19th dog in the history of the breed to make SchH3 and one of nine SchH3 American bulldogs alive in the US and Europe. As John says, "He's a fun dog to have around."

I'm looking forward to working the H.O.T. Championship as I am a proud member of USA's SchH3 club with my American Bulldog "Levi". Best of luck to all the competitors and thanks to the Helper Committee for the opportunity to work the H.O.T. Championship once again.
