A bit more compact than his "brother' Blu (they are actually cousins) he has more speed and is a wacky guy. Steele made his racing debut at the Trailblazers tournament in May of 2004. He earned his FD title and proved to be a very methodical dog. He had to do all the steps n the right order and if anything went wrong it puzzled him to the point where he would stop mid lane and just think. At that point we thought he would never get the game but he proved us wrong. Steele has developed into on of the most consistent dogs in he club. Unlike Blu, Steele plays because we ask him to. He can live very well without balls and jumps and boxes. He is a snugger at home and happy to be a companion and share your bed. The clown of the pack he is enthusiastic about everything, toys, food, rides in the car, and walks in the woods. Vocal in the lanes he gets everyone revved up. His best position is start, and as long as there is a dog in the other lane he will give his all. Racing an empty can be an issue, I mean why bother, but fortunately in that case there is no one to beat.
