Trooper has had a fabulous career in Canadian Conformation Shows in 2002. Receiving Best of Breed, and Winners Dog with 7 points under the patient handler, Ilene DeLaere, at 20 months, Trooper bounced into the show ring in London and then in Chatham leaving them wanting for more of him. One month later, Trooper returned to Canada, and championed in Brantford at 21 months.
