                           About the Breeder

The son of a Minister, Lemuel Miller was raised in a very loving home traveling and singing Gospel music with his family and with Bill gaither and the Gaither Vocal Band. After leaving the Vocal band Lemuel traveled as an International Minister of Song and the Word of God. In August of 2006 Lemuel and wife DaVonne left Florida moving to South Georgia and bacame Senior Pastor  of China Hill Christian Church ... http://www.chinahillministries.com/ . As a child, Lemuel's mother made the comment to his father, "a boy needs to grow up with a good dog". From that time until this, Lemuel has raised and trained dogs. In 1967, Lemuel started his breeding program and bred to his first registered Bulldog known at the time as "American Pit Bulldog" later the "Pit" was dropped making it the now known American Bulldog. Lemuel and DaVonne, have 3 wonderful children; Heather, Joshua and Rachel of whom all love animals. When his children were small, Lemuel placed his children in business raising dogs in order to teach them about business, responsibility and discipline. Naming the kennel after his son Joshua, the family spent quality time together  with their dogs.  With an absolute commitment to raising a true working Bulldog, Joshua Kennels only breeds the best of the best to the best never compromising for just conformation and size. Joshua Kennels feels that intelligence, temperament and Ol' Fashion Bulldog Tenacity are far more important... however, it doesn't cost anymore to feed a pretty one. In addition, Joshua Bulldogs have done well in the ring. Lem has raised and trained such National Champions as Joshua's Sand Valley Sam aka "Cowboy", Joshua's Tabatha, (a Cowboy daughter) Joshua's Caleb and Joshua's Ol' Southern White to mention a few. Lem has judged the largest and most prestigious bulldog shows in the world, including the ABA National Specialty Show, NKC National Specialty, ABNA National Specialty etc. and won the coveted "Breeder of the Year" award.


       
One of Lem's favorite topics concerning bulldogs is structure, and as most in the bulldog world know, Lem has been a pioneer in producing structurally sound AB's. In a breed that is 70-80%  dysplastic, Joshua Kennels has been a front runner for structurally sound bulldogs. Although Lem is the author of the definitive book of American Bulldogs ("American Bulldogs Stories, Facts and Legends") he wants you to understand that he learns something new every day. Called by God to minister the Gospel of Christ, Lem breeds bulldogs as a hobby stating "my integrity is more important than selling a bulldog, so if you buy a Joshua Bulldog, I'll do everything I can to make you happy!"
