Ruediger's interest in dogs was spawned by his uncle, who raised Cardigan Welsh Corgis. In 1984, his uncle gave him a Blue Mural male,  Baldon Baron Blue Marvel. "Baron" earned a companion dog title with two first places and a second place in the novice division.

In 2002, Ruediger and his uncle set out to find a Bull Terrier for confirmation show and performance in agility and obedience.

Breeder Dr. Fanne Berez sold Ruediger his first Bull Terrier, with a  co-ownership between Berez and Rick Harris: “Ace,” a singleton puppy Ch. Action King's Ransom. Ace was sired by National Champion Ch. Action Season Premier ROM and Silverwood winner Ch. Action African Queen ROM.

Ruediger and Ace are currently working on titles in agility, Obedience and Rally. Ruediger is a member of the Westmoreland County Obedience Training Club in Delmont, Pa., where he volunteers as an assistant instructor.
