The newest face to the Rez Dog Rodeo Team is Oklahoma's Doug Fish. This Muscogee Creek cowboy is no newcomer to rodeo. In fact, he is one of many cowboys today who know they were born to buck.
At the tender age of 12 Doug recognized his destiny by riding calves. Soon graduating onto junior bulls, to today's bulls of the Professional Bull Riders.
You won't find Doug too far on the outside of the Rodeo. A humorist with an incredible professional and positive attitude, Doug understands that being a Bull Rider is a full time job. He admits there is a mental and physical tactic to the sport of rodeo, he has had trouble with and injuries. He has paid to play the game. By taking time and effort to train, Doug is now proud to say he is enjoying his talent. He remains involved in physical activities that vary from hunting to riding his bike for distance.
Being a Native American in a role model position, Doug is aware of his part in the continuing of his culture. His main concern is the preservation of Rodeo. With opportunities Doug encourages the up and coming stars of Indian Rodeo to hold there heads up high and not get mixed up in the negative. " I was dealt a lucky hand. With hard work I am able to accomplish my dreams," says Fish.
Doug has had a ground breaking career in the International Professional Rodeo Association (IPRA) and Indian Rodeo, accelerating him into competition with the elite of the Professional Bull Riders (PBR). The PBR offers the best bulls in the business and the best cowboys in the business. In the 2003 season the cowboys of the PBR are competing for over $11.9 million dollars
In the 2002 Rez Dog Clothing Company signed Doug Fish to the list of Indian Cowboys and Cowgirls they will support. Rez Dog now offers one of the best Indian Cowboys to the PBR. With dedicated cowboys such as Doug Fish coming up, the future of Bull Riding can be assured. Now a member of 5 different associations, look for a Rez Dog Rodeo Team member in the spotlight, at the next big show. Shoulder to shoulder with today's Rodeo Stars. He will be on the prowl for Rez Dog with the big win.
