A letter from the Dog

***John*** · 11-08-2004, 10:31 PM

I got this e-mail from Dog, and thought I'd share.

Quote:

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

Dog the bounty hunter wanted to thank you all for all your time and effort for helping make his show a success. Here is a thank you letter straight from the dog's mouth…..

To be a winner you have to know what it feels like losing. And my life hasn't been a path of all "wins." It's been a tough road and I've learned a lot of lessons. You have to be a liar in order to catch a liar and you have to run with them in order to catch them. This is what bounty hunting is all about. Bounty hunting is a second chance business and we are good at it because we are second chance people.

I've wanted my own tv show for some time now and with the help and expertise of A&E and support from websites like yours, I have one, and a successful one at that.

I hope you've enjoyed the episodes of "Dog the Bounty Hunter" so far. The family, Beth, and I have enjoyed giving the world a glimpse into our lives. Thank you for making "Dog the Bounty Hunter" A&E highest rated premiere ever.

Keep it Real Brah!

Duane "Dog" Chapman

aha! Now we know how to spell "Brah" like the Dog. Thanks for writing, Dog.

That's awesome John. It's great Dog dropped us a line. I guess this means my mullet jokes are fine for now.

That's really cool he dropped a line and showed he's a real "brah" and not just putting on a show. Makes me even like him more!

Oh Speedy, John forgot to post this last part of Dog's letter.

P.S. tell Speedy me and my mullet are going to kick him into next week if he doesn't lay off my super-cool hairdo.

just kidding

LG!

He's a likable guy on the show, of course I didn't expect anything different from a personal correspondence. That was super nice of him to send you that email John!

Glad to hear the show is going great for him!

It's nice to know that the good feeling I get from the Dog and the gang has been borne out in the form of Dog's "Thank You!" ketter. It's really great to see that he'd take time out to do that!

I like Dog and the gang, and am continuing to watch and enjoy the show.

Thanks, Dog!

And thatnks, John, for posting that letter!

LG-

I sleep with a jar of dippity-doo and a brush tucked under my pillow. If he comes after me, I'll just pull that out and he'll forget all about smashing my kneecaps.

I do think it's awesome that Dog wrote. I really enjoy recapping the show and I'm not just saying that.

I absolutely love this show. I tuned in the first time, expecting a show similar to "Cops", but I am continually amazed at the respect, and even kindness, they have displayed while take care of business. It's interesting to know how this business is run, but it is the big hearts they have that make it enjoyable.

Oh, and Dog.....if you're reading this......Speedy has told me numerous times how much he admires you.

That was really nice of Dog to email you John. His show is a nice change of pace. I think I've seen every episode so far. Tonight they showed that they don't necessarily always nab the fugitive they're after, and sometimes they sustain some minor injuries. And Dog seems to have a fetish for vacuuming.
