Mary Jane chose the bull terrier as her design dog because "The marketing of this dog, winner in 1987, “Spuds MacKenzie” intrigued me and I’m sure Bud Light got their r.o.i!" Why is she a design dog? "I’m friendly and loyal; you can kick me and I’ll keep coming back. I’m fun and playful; both my mind and body need to be kept active." |
