* Do you or anyone in your immediate family own a dog, cat, ferret, etc.?
Not at this time; I have had many animals: dogs, horses, chickens and rabbits. My
grandfather, uncles and cousins have been cattlemen and I have very vivid memories of
being rubbed off the back of a yearling calf on the corral fence.
* Do you or anyone in your immediate family hunt, with or without a dog?
Yes. I have been a traditional bow hunter and specialized in making my own arrows.
* Do you support any animal rescue organizations or shelters?
No.
* Do you philosophically support any animal rights or animal protection organizations? If
so,please identify the organizations.
No.
* Do any animal rights or animal protection organizations endorse you as a candidate or
financially support your campaign?
No.
* Should Spaying or Neutering of an animal be controlled by the government through
legislation or should it be left between a veterinarian and their client to decide?
Non-governmental solutions are fundamental to my view life in a free country.
* Do you believe that animal owners should have their status as owners changed to the
status of guardians? As a guardian you do not own your animals, you are strictly a
caretaker?
No. Huh?
* Do you support the states' prerogatives to manage their resident wildlife populations
and establish local hunting regulations, without federal interference?
Absolutely.
* Do you believe in peoples rights to own (responsibly) any animal of their choice,
regardless of species: exotic or domestic?
Yes.
* Do you believe it is okay to discriminate against exotic animal owners through unfair
bans?
No.
What is your position on the following animal and/or hunting related issues?
a) Hunting, including the use of dogs
I love hunting and marvel at the beauty of nature and its creatures.
b) Fishing
I love fishing, but I'm no good at it.
c) Animal medical research
Animal medical research is extremely important to advances in medicine.
d) Animal ownership and breeding (including pet & livestock breeding, research animals,
circuses and rodeos)
d) I support breeding, research and animal entertainment.
