Many people like to know a little about the people behind the puppies they buy, so I will use this page to
provide more information about me, my philosophy, the people that work with me,and history of Shekinah
Kennel.
provide more information about me, my philosophy, the people that work with me,and history of Shekinah
Kennel.
I am a born again Christian, and have been since 1961,
when I was saved at a church camp I had attended. I
still belong to the same faith, and am active in church,
and church related activities.
I grew up in California, and Arkansas. I met, and
married Robert, my husband in 1969.
We have had 5 children, and now have 10
grandchildren! It is very true that grandchildren are so
much fun! I feel like a kid again "playing" with the
girls,and the pups. The grandsons are to young to play
much, but they will get there soon! Experiencing things
right along with them, and there is always something
new to experience between the farm, and the kennel, and
all the children. We are building a home for each of our
children here on our place, so it is like a mini
neighborhood of our family members!
We started the kennel in 1986. Since we had 5 children,
it was hard to justify a job and leaving the children for
someone else to raise. I have always loved animals,
and so the idea of the kennel was born. The children
always helped as part of their chores after school.
They loved playing with the puppies, but they were not
so fond of the cleaning part!
My first breed I purchased was the Bichon, the next
was the Shih Tzu, then I ventured into the Maltese. I
have had a lot of fun with the fuzzy little puppies, and
my grown dogs are just as special, and I appreciate
all the work they do for me.
Now my grandchildren play with the puppies!

| My Hobbies |
I enjoy my family and friends, and my
church family. I always look forward to all
the holidays and spending time, and having
fun filled days with any and all of them!
I love horseback ridding with my husband.
Sometimes I go with friends, or my children.
I like to fish out in our back yard, where we
have 2 spring fed ponds, stocked with catfish,
bass, and perch! So peaceful, and serene.
Yes, I put the worm on my own hook, AND
I even clean what I catch!
I like to hatch chickens from the eggs that
my chickens lay, and then I have the "fun" of
finding homes to give them too!
Last, but not least, I really love breeding
dogs and having puppies available for sale to
great loving homes!
I am just an animal lover from start to
finish.
Below are a couple of links to places that I
like that relate to the horse world and
children!
