TRIAL HELPER - DERRIKE LACROSS

My name is Derrike Lacross. New England is my home region and I have been doing helper work for almost a decade now. I have done 4 Regionals and 5 National Championships for USCA and AWMA. I love all working breeds and am truly impressed by their abilities and genetic makeup. I own 2 Boxers myself that I train in the sport. One of my other passions away from trial work is training. Seeing dogs with different drive states achieve the same goal is fascinating and will always bring me joy. This will be my first Schnauzerfest and I could not be more excited Good luck to all competitors and I wish everyone the best!

This years host for Schnauzerfest 2024 is the Schutzengel Working Dog Club!
