IPO3 HELPER: MARCUS HAMPTON
My name is Marcus
Hampton and I was
born and raised in
Buffalo, N.Y. Through my
years growing up I played
football and boxing and
of course I always had a
passion for dogs. I
started Schutzhund in
the year 2000 when I
met my mentor Owen
Tober at the Schutzhund
Club of Buffalo; which I
am currently a member
and the club helper. While I am not busy doing helper work and
training with my own schutzhund group I am spending time training
my own dog “Tuko” for IPO II.
I am a National level helper and since the year 2000 I have done
several club trials and big events doing Sch and IPO I, II and III dogs as
well as a police DPO trial.
2009 Schutzhund Club of Buffalo club trials (2) : Sch I, II, and III’s

I would like to take the time out to thank the people that supported
me through the years such as my mentor and friend Owen Tober and
the Schutzhund Club of Buffalo. Also, thank you to Mark Scarberry for
all his support and help. Thanks to Schutzhund USCA and the Helper
