About Us

      

    WinMor Kennels was started by Holly Lowery in 1991 in eastern Ohio.  My love started with the rednose strain of APBT and I found a line on which I based my foundation. Cajun and Rudee skyrocketed  my start in weight pulling and showing and from there on out I was hooked! Since then I have produced  many show champions and numerous weight pull titled dogs. Some of which have went on to set world records and win national competitions.

 

 I met my best friend,  Travis Richmond in 2003 at a UKC dog show in Randolph Ohio.  At the time we were both single but dating other people,  I knew there was a "special" sparkle that we both couldn't deny. There was something about him I couldn't live without.  We remained friends until I moved to Tennessee in March of 2004 to pursue a new life and a new romance! We bought our house and 5 acres and got married July 19th 2004!

 

         Since then we have been very busy! Holly works fulltime as a Certified Master Dog Groomer and salon manager at Paws and Claws in Knoxville Tennessee. She also owns and operates a Mobile grooming service in the evenings and weekends (when we are not gone showing dogs!!) Holly's family resides in Columbus Ohio. Travis works for UPS driving the little brown truck and working in the HUB. His parents and family are in Sevierville TN. His father is the preacher at his church The Tabernacle of Praise. We have both loved animals since we were small children! We don't have kids yet, but our "four legged kids" are a big part of our life and we spend a lot of time catering to their needs! Check back as we add pictures of the house...the kennel....and  other  family snapshots!!! Thank you for visiting the home of the Richmond's and WinMor Kennels! May God Bless you!
