1999 North American SCHH III Champions Quattro Von Spitzbubezwinger and Tim Cruser Developed at the turn of the century, Schutzhund is one of the most demanding of all dog sports. It is designed as a breeding tool for the German Shepherd Dog and requires a reliable and willing partner. This partner is called a Working Dog. Tim Cruser has been, since his beginning in the sport, a top competitor. His first dog, Ninja von Oberlander SchH III, won High SchH I in Trial in their very first showing together. All titles were trained for and obtained together with Tim. Since then Tim has gone on to title many more dogs and with the help of some great friends co-founded and became Training Director of the Central Virginia SchH Club, located in Rustburg, VA. Years of training culminated in May of 1999. Against a world class field, Quattro and Tim won the North American SchH III Championship. Competing over three days and against 65 other master level dog teams, Quattro and Tim achieved a winning score of 290 points out of a possible 300. Not only is this a testament to the unique ability of Quattro, but is clear proof of the excellent quality of Tim's training and handling. ----------------------- TV COMMERCIALS Tim's exposure to animal training reaches beyond his K-9 friends into the worlds of exotic animals, dolphins and elephants.
