Paul Sifton and "Big Mac"
“Paullydog” has worked in anonymity for years as he selflessly serves indigent hospital, AIDS clinics and orphanages on goodwill trips from his home in Jacksonville, FL. He along with helpers “Big Mac” (shown on the right) and her husband “Bulldog”, added the Dog Meets World project while in the Dominican Republic.
He noted “We gathered alot of the children (in the orphanage) up and took a picture of each of them. We put the camera card in the small picture printer and printed them all a picture of them selves to keep. None of them had ever had a picture taken of them and handed to them to keep.”
