Imagine hustling through your life, moving from city to city, grappling with the harsh realities of gang life, and surviving the trauma of multiple shootings. This is the life story of Rolando Oates, a man whose resilience and unwavering pursuit for a better life led him to a path of finding solace in dogs and the world of dog-breeding. 

Join us as we walk through Rolando's experiences - from childhood shaped by a hardworking mother, navigating through the entangled streets of Minnesota, to surviving bullets and dealing with the aftermath. The journey is a raw revelation of a life where the only constant is change and uncertainty. Rolando's vulnerability as he opens up about guilt and PTSD after being the last one standing from his old group is heart-wrenching, yet his strength and courage shines through.

The story takes an unexpected turn when Rolando discovers his passion for dogs, leading him to the shady world of dog breeding. Rolando, a decade deep in the game now, tells us about his dog breeding enterprise, BMG Kennels, and how he strives to place different breeds of bullies in loving homes. From getting his first dog as a set up from his cousin to dealing with shifty dog game players, Rolando's tale is as captivating as it is inspiring. Tune in to hear it all, and find out how you can connect with BMG Kennels.
