Ron ended up losing every single one of his dogs and puppies except for one. More than 25 dogs and puppies ended up passing away in the fire that day.

“You can imagine how devastating this is. My dogs were my life. Please continue to follow my page….. This will not be the end of Doggy Style Kennels.”
Danielle O’Rourke, one of Ron’s clients who owns a dog he bred, created a GoFundMe page to help him rebuild Doggy Style Kennels.
“Ron Kraemer is the owner and operator and doggy dad of Doggy Style Kennels in Bardstown, KY,” Danielle began on the page.
“I was introduced to Ron and his incredible business in 2013 when I purchased my very best friend Lucy from his business.”
“Today on Lucy’s birthday, Ron left on a trip to town to get dog food. Upon his return, he found his barn burning, and all of his dogs but one, and all of his litters of puppies perished in the fire.”
“I know how much Ron loved his dogs just from experiencing his business personally, his voices on the videos he always shared, and because my Lucy was one of the best gifts I could have ever received.”
“Please contribute to Ron and this tragedy and help him rebuild his dream, and pay for the medical care for the one surviving dog who lost her litter.”
“We all know that those puppies and dogs, were not just his business, they were his family,” Danielle continued in the updates section.
