I
am a very grateful recovering alcoholic. I think that is where everyday of
mine starts here is remembering where it is I come from. The Lord seems to
always remind me of where I do come from and what it is everyday that I
must do. This rescue to dedicated to the other people out there that
are like me in recovery and to our Lord Jesus Christ. I have a BA from OSU
in zoology. I think when I started into breeding years ago the main reason
I got my degree was to help to save all the exotics of the world. To save
what man was so trying to destroy with growth and with the world becoming
so over populated. Now I can honestly tell you that I apply the knowledge
of that degree towards rescue. We have been very blessed here to have so
many people that have joined us here to help with that mission,
Now a little about me. I am a
Native American. I learned to breed English bulldogs from one wonderful
woman whom is now passed away but will never be forgotten by me Barbara
Edwards. Her and her husband Bud had breed bullies for 30 years when she
took me under her wing and taught me to breed. She was a wonderful woman
who loved Bullies with all her heart. I can honestly tell you that I still
think about her every time I go to pick a bullie up. I studied 2 years
under her to learn about this wonderful breed. I never knew Bud but the
way she always talked about him I felt like I did.
I have been so blessed to have
been given a reprieve from the very pits of hell which is alcoholism not
just once but 2 times. That was where the dream of saving became a
reality for me rather than breeding. I named this rescue from a English
bulldog who was the first of my dream of English bulldogs, Dakota. It is
only fitting that this rescue be named after him. He is gone now but the
thought of him with always be in my heart.
