Hello, Im Cecilia Martinez, Im Southernwind Kennels, Southernwind was established in 1978, It all started through the input of different successful breeders and enthusiasts friends who were part of the inspiration . As a young girl I had always shared a great passion for dogs and Horses, my home was known as the Pet rescue Shelter in my town, were all strayed and abandoned dogs would come to share our home. When I was born, my family had Perla, a Female Doberman who had been a rescue from the first Doberman breeder in PR, Perla suffered distemper and they were going to put her down, but then my MOM came to the rescue and took her under her care, In the 1950’s distemper was a real deadly disease and my mother was able to save her with nurturing care and baby antibiotics, Perla suffered terrible joints weakness and couldn't walk nor stand, and my mother taped wooden splints to her legs to help her walk, Perla lived up to 12 years of age in perfect health and no withdraw form the distemper except for her yellow teeth!! Like this story there are many more...I tell this story over and over, for I feel proud about my mother and my family who were primarily responsible to establish in me the real love and devotion for animals. My mother passed away when I was 12, but she left in me the greatest imprinting, the real love and devotion for animals ! Since then I turned my life into walking in the path of passion for them! To Her I have dedicated this Web Page, many, many years have passed and every idea, inspiration, outcome and success is written in these pages and it turns out to be everything because of her!
