Slate began his AKC career at the age of three and
owner/handled.  After a few trying obstacles I decided to
hand him over to a professional in the AKC arena.  
Catherine Collins (a great AKC pro handler) offered and I
gladly accepted and boy was that the right decision.  Slate
turned into a SHOW DOG!  Those two were amazing
together! Catherine also handled the #1 bitch for 2007, CH
HHK's Here's Lookin at You Griff  (Slate's cousin) and also
finished Slate's grandpa (CH Gaff's Pacific Blue Tsunami)
as #30 Amstaff in 2005.  This awesome duo ended their
career together when Slate finished his championship in
Oct 2007, after only 6 short months of limited showing
with Catherine.  He is now retired and living the couch life,
waiting patiently to be a stud!!!
