S Creek Ranch

My name is Dana and I teach math and yearbook at a local high school and
have been a beautician for over s
eventeen years. I was born in Oklahoma and
have lived in several states throughout my life. I have had dogs in my life since
I was one. Most of them have been mutts of various types but have had a blue
heeler, cocker spaniel, wolf hybrid, four chows, and now rat terriers.

My husband and I have been married for
twelve years and have two children.
My husband is an electrician/general contractor
working in government
buildings. He recently purchased a vinyl graphics cutter and has begun to sell
and apply graphics locally. He also has his CDL and can drive most heavy
equipment and semis.

We live in his hometown. We purchased the house above
over eight years
ago. His paternal grandparents purchased this house many years ago and his
aunt lived in it until we bought it from her. It is a small house and since our
family has grown we are planning on building a house on the back part of our
fifteen acres.

This house has almost an acre that is fenced and that is where the dogs live.
We have several dog houses on the front porch and the dogs sleep on the
back deck during the summer. I do not believe in penning a dog up all the
time, especially when I have so much room to play, but I do use kennels to put
the boys in time out when they are misbehaving or to put all the dogs up when
company is over and playing outside.

Our children are ages 1
1 and 5. Our son is in the sixth grade and our daughter
is in kindergarten. Both of my children share my love of animals and it is a
good thing our house is small or we would have a zoo. We have four fish tanks
full of various fish and two leopard geckos. If they could convince their dad we
would have cats, ferrets, gerbils and rabbits too.
There is not a lot to do in this
sleepy little town and
having pets is a safe way to pass the time.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the breeders from where my
dogs have come from - if it was not for you all this would not be possible. I
would like to extend a special thanks to Pat K. and Karrie S. They have both
tolerated my e-mails, instant messages, and long phone calls with grace.
They are both very special people to me and they will never know how much I
truly appreciate them being at the other end of this computer.

I would also like to thank all of the other breeders I call friends and the special
people that have purchased pups from me. Nothing can break this rattie
family we have built. Thank you for teaching me how to be a good breeder.
